Impact The right-hander posted an impressive 2.57 ERA across seven Cactus League appearances this spring to earn a roster spot, but his first taste of regular-season action since May 6, 2019 resulted in a forgettable outing. Steckenrider's fastball, which sat in the mid-90s before a variety of arm injuries the last two seasons, averaged just 91.7 mph during Friday's outing, an aspect of his play worth monitoring as the season unfolds.
