Shota Imanaga of the Chicago Cubs Out With Left Hamstring Strain, 15-Day Injured List

Shota Imanaga's injury leaves a gap in the Cubs' rotation. He has pitched 44 2/3 innings this season with a 2.82 ERA and a 3-2 record. His recent performance includes an ERA of 2.12 over the last three games, showing consistency on the mound.

With Imanaga out, pitchers like Jameson Taillon and Matthew Boyd may see adjustments in their roles. The Cubs' upcoming game against the San Francisco Giants at Wrigley Field could be impacted. Imanaga's absence might require other starters to take on more innings.
