Chicago Cubs manager Craig Counsell said that right-handed itching prospect Cade Horton is an option to take left-hander Shota Imanaga's (hamstring) place in the big-league starting rotation after the team placed Imanaga on the 15-day injured list on Monday. In addition to Horton, veteran right-hander Chris Flexen is stretched out in a long-relief role and is another option, although he isn't nearly as intriguing for fantasy purposes. Horton was the former seventh overall pick in 2022 out of Oklahoma and is considered the club's No. 2 prospect, per MLB Pipeline. While Flexen might have the upper hand to make a start this weekend against the New York Mets because he's on the 40-man roster, Horton represents the much better speculative waiver-wire pickup. The 23-year-old has posted a strong 1.24 ERA, 0.86 WHIP and 33:13 K:BB in 29 innings for Triple-A Iowa to begin the 2025 season.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
