Steele Stumbles Slightly in Cubs' Narrow Loss
by Jesse Garcia | Cubs Correspondent | Thu, Jul 25th 8:06am EDT
Justin Steele delivered a middling performance in Wednesday's 3-2 loss to the Brewers.
Fantasy Impact:
He allowed two earned runs on six hits and three walks while striking out four over 5.1 innings. Despite the loss, Steele's season metrics remain solid, boasting a 3.08 ERA and a 1.06 WHIP across 16 starts. His 8.5 K/9 and 3.96 strikeout-to-walk ratio highlight his ability to manage games effectively, though his win-loss record doesn't quite mirror his overall performance. Fantasy managers should continue to view Steele as a reliable option in their rotations, particularly in leagues that value WHIP and ERA, given his consistent ability to limit base runners and maintain a decent strikeout rate.
