Justin Steele already was poised for a big role on the Cubs pitching staff, but with Adbert Alzolay’s injury, he could take on a significant role.
With Alzolay’s injury, Steele looms larger in the rotation mix. He's a bona fide candidate to start, and if he takes a step from last season could be a key member of the staff.Steele was a multi-inning relief weapon early in 2021, holding a 2.03 ERA in 11 appearances before going down with a hamstring injury in May. The Cubs stretched him out in the minor leagues after he rehabbed and brought him back as a starter in August.
“When you see the flashes of the performance they can have when they're healthy, then you just want to try to keep them that way, right? He's one of those guys.” “Just come in and get people out,” Steele said in a conversation with NBC Sports Chicago about an increased opportunity “Wherever they see that I can help the team best and they put me there, I’m OK with it.”
