Justin Steele Shines, Cubs Fall Short Against Padres
by Matthew Adam | Cubs Correspondent | Tue, May 7th 6:08am EDT
Justin Steele delivered a strong performance in Monday's 6-3 loss to the Padres.
Fantasy Impact:
He tossed 4.2 innings, allowing no earned runs on three hits and one walk while striking out two. Despite Steele's solid outing, his efforts weren't enough to secure a win for the Cubs, reflecting the ongoing struggle of the team to capitalize on quality starts. Steele's season ERA now impressively stands at 0.96, with a WHIP of 0.86, indicating high-level pitching that should keep him relevant in fantasy leagues. Fantasy managers should value his ability to maintain low scoring and WHIP, but temper expectations for big strikeout numbers.
