Chicago Cubs pitcher Justin Steele has been placed on the 15-day injured list due to a hamstring strain. In his place, 24-year-old right-hander Ben Brown, who was acquired from the Philadelphia Phillies, has been recalled from Triple-A Iowa. Brown recently showcased his talent during spring training and is expected to make his major league debut in the upcoming series against the Colorado Rockies. The Cubs' rotation is already without right-hander Jameson Taillon due to a back injury.
