With the Cubs in the thick of a playoff race, end-of-season awards aren’t the biggest motivating factor for Justin Steele right now. It’s nice to be in the conversation for any of those, for sure. But getting this team to the playoffs — and potentially playing deep into October — is the No. 1 focus. “It’s really cool. It’s quite…
