There isn't a return date set yet for the Chicago Cubs' ace, but they continue to get positive news as he works his way back.
over the weekend where they continued to have pitching issues. Yet, despite those problems, they hold a record of 13-9 and are two games back from the NL Central lead.
They'll need to figure out what is going on with their pitching staff soon, though, as they enter the toughest stretch of their schedule to date.Losing Justin Steele on Opening Day didn't help things, and once he returns, the profile of this starting unit should be bolstered.They continue to get good news as the left-hander progresses through his rehab. He just cleared an important hurdle on Sunday when he threw a live batting practice session.
The Cubs are hoping that Steele will be back at some point against the Mets, but if not, they definitely need him back when they face their division rivalWhenever their ace returns, Chicago will have plenty of questions that need answering regarding who should be getting spots in this rotation moving forward.
