Summary
The Cubs are cautiously plotting Justin Steele’s return after a full season on the sidelines, with a light mound workout planned for August 1st—20 pitches to start rebuilding his arm strength. Once a 2023 All-Star and former fifth-round draft pick, Steele’s goal is to rejoin the rotation or transition into relief, offering much-needed depth as the team battles the Yankees in a series they’ve already lost Game 1. The plan? Patience, progress, and a potential comeback later this year. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
