Justin Steele had a rough outing in Friday's 5-2 loss to the Diamondbacks.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed five earned runs on nine hits and two walks while striking out six over 4 2/3 innings. This performance was a notable dip compared to his solid season stats, boasting a 3.07 ERA and a 1.02 WHIP. The increase in hits and earned runs in this outing could raise concerns about his consistency, especially considering his previously low BABIP of .263, which might suggest some regression was due. Fantasy managers should monitor his next few starts closely for signs of recovery or further decline.
