Chicago Cubs bring up reinforcements after placing their No. 2 starter on the IL
The Chicago Cubs have been playing great baseball lately, winning eight of their last ten ballgames and taking two of three games from the Texas Rangers where they’ve outscored them 17 to six.
The Cubs have been getting great production from their starting pitching and their offense with their bullpenslowly starting to figure things out.
The Cubs got a great outing in the first game of the series from lefty Justin Steele who threw seven innings of shutout baseball before landing on the injured list with tendinitis in his elbow.
Chicago Cubs call up reliever after Steele’s injury
Since Steele was placed on the injured list a spot on the 26-man roster opened up and the Cubs filled it by calling up reliever Ethan Roberts from Triple-A Iowa.
The 27-year-old Roberts has spent parts of two seasons in the big leagues with the Cubs once in 2022, where he appeared in nine games where he had an 8.22 ERA, and the other time last season, when he appeared in 21 games and had a 3.21 ERA in 26.2 innings.
Steele won’t be on the IL for long
Steele, if all goes well and no setbacks occur, shouldn’t be on the injured list for too long as this tendinitis should clear up with rest and icing.
Roberts should get opportunities to showcase if he’s worth keeping around, as the bullpen could use someone who can have clean innings.
Once Steele returns though, Roberts could be sent back down so the Cubs won’t have to designate anyone for assignment or waste another option on someone else.
The Cubs will be looking for the sweep this afternoon against the Rangers, sending their Ace Shota Imanaga to the mound to face off against Rangers right-hander Tyler Mahle.
