Justin Steele is the Cubs’ homegrown success story. Most, if not all of us, remember when Steele and Keegan Thompson came up, both young men full of promise, fire, and down-south manners. Their careers have taken different paths since then. Thompson has shown flashes of brilliance but has been unable to put it all together.
Justin Steele is a potential Cy Young candidate and 2023 All-Star, who throws four pitches but relies on two, which he throws at different velocities and with seemingly slightly different grips to get varied results from the thrown ball.
