Shota Imanaga could slot third in Cubs rotation

Boyd was named the Cubs' Opening Day starter — the third time in his career and first with Chicago — after Imanaga was considered for the assignment. The rotation behind Boyd hasn't been officially announced, but slotting Horton second and Imanaga third would give Chicago a lefty-righty-lefty sequence at the top of the staff. (Jordan Bastian)

Fantasy Impact:

If Imanaga lands in the No. 3 spot, his first regular season appearance would come March 29 against the Nationals at Wrigley Field.
