The Cubs come head into this set on a six-game winning streak after taking down the Pittsburgh Pirates. Since the All-Star break, Chicago has outscored opponents 32-11.
On the other hand, the San Francisco Giants have been struggling a lot in their last games. They have lost 7 out of their last 10 entering the series and are in danger of falling out of the wildcard contention.

While his numbers might not look that great, Steele looked great in his first start after the All-Star break. Steele allowed only one run in 5 innings against the Philadelphia Phillies. In three of his last four starts, he has allowed one run and has allowed six total runs in his last 22.2 innings pitched.
