The\u00a0Chicago Cubs’ starting rotation is set for the first five games of the season. With Jameson Taillon unavailable due to a back issue, Javier Assad and Jordan Wicks\u00a0will be\u00a0in the rotation to open the season. In addition,\u00a0Justin Steele\u00a0is\u00a0undoubtedly\u00a0the team’s Opening Day starter.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
However, there is a little wrinkle in the remainder of the rotation. According to Counsell, Steele,\u00a0Kyle Hendricks, and Wicks will take the ball in the Texas Rangers series,\u00a0lining up\u00a0LHP\u00a0Shota Imanaga\u00a0to make his Cubs debut at Wrigley Field in the team’s home opener.<\/p>\n
