LOS ANGELES (AP) — Chicago Cubs pitcher Justin
Steele will seek other opinions on his left elbow tendinitis.
It's the third time he has dealt with the injury.
Manager Craig Counsell said the fact that it’s a recurrence
played into the decision.
“We want to make sure we know why it has happened again so
Justin's got all the information and then we can go from there,”
Counsell said Friday before the Cubs opened a three-game series
at the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Steele underwent an MRI on Thursday that showed he's dealing
with a similar issue to last year, when tendinitis kept him out
just over two weeks late in the season before he made a strong
return.
The left-hander was 3-1 with a 4.76 ERA before going on the
15-day injured list Wednesday.
