Cade Horton Continues To Increase Workload
Cade Horton logged six innings of work for the second-straight start on Sunday against Triple-A Buffalo. In this outing, the top pitching prospect in Chicago allowed just one run, two hits, and held a 5:1 K:BB. This was his second-straight start tossing at least six innings of work. Prior to this stretch, the former seventh overall pick logged just 17 innings of work over his first four starts of the season. Horton dealt with a shoulder injury last season and was only able to log 34 1/3 innings of work before being shut down. This is a great sign to see the top prospect return to form and increase his workload. With Justin Steele (elbow) ruled out of the season and Shota Imanaga (hamstring) in danger of missing time, fantasy managers should consider stashing Horton in standard leagues as he could be in contention to make his MLB debut very soon.
