Goes four innings Saturday Steele allowed two runs on on two hits across four innings and did not factor into the decision Saturday against the Brewers. He walked four and struck out four.

Impact Steele was good at limiting hits and missing bats, but the four walks are concerning, and he also allowed two home runs. The lefty continued his trend of short outings, as he hasn't gone past five innings in any of his seven starts, and this was the second time he logged exactly four frames. Steele has shown some promise, though the inability to go deeper into games caps his fantasy value. He's projected to start again Friday against the Cardinals.

Takes loss Sunday Steele (3-3) allowed five runs on 11 hits across five innings to take the loss Sunday against the Giants. He walked two and struck out four.

Impact Steele simply allowed too many baserunners to be effective, and a two-run home run by Wilmer Flores in the fifth inning punctuated the rough outing. The lefty was reasonably solid in his previous two starts, allowing just three runs across 10 innings, so expect the rebuilding Cubs to keep him in the rotation through the end of the season and possibly into next year if he finishes strongly. Steele lines up to face the Brewers on Saturday in his next scheduled appearance.

Chased in the sixth Steele surrendered three runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over five innings in Monday's victory over the Reds. He did not factor into the game's decision.

Impact The lefty went the first five innings of his outing without giving up a run but ran into trouble in the top of the sixth. He allowed four straight batters to reach before being pulled and getting charged with a total of three runs in the frame. The 26-year-old has posted a 4.77 ERA in five starts since becoming a part of the starting rotation and will draw the Giants in his next projected start Sunday.

Yields only one hit in win Steele (3-2) completed five scoreless innings against Minnesota on Wednesday, allowing one hit and three walks while striking out three to earn the win.

Impact The left-hander was somewhat wild in the outing, throwing only 48 of 86 pitches for strikes and walking three batters. However, he held the Twins to a harmless single and allowed only one runner to reach third base. The performance was easily Steele's finest since moving into the rotation Aug. 10; over his first three starts, he posted a 6.39 ERA, 1.66 WHIP and an 0-2 record. His next turn is likely to come at home against Cincinnati early next week.

Struggles in Game 2 Steele allowed four runs on five hits across 3.2 innings and did not factor into the decision in the second game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Rockies. He walked two and...

Impact Steele had his start postponed Tuesday night due to inclement weather, and the extra day didn't do the lefty any favors, as he had his worst outing since joining the Cubs' rotation earlier this month. With Adbert Alzolay (hamstring) still on the injured list and Jake Arrieta no longer with the team, Steele should continue to start, and his 4.15 ERA overall is respectable despite Wednesday's hiccup. He's currently lined up to take the mound again Tuesday against the Twins.
