Cade Horton To Start On Friday Against White Sox
Cade Horton is scheduled to make the start for Friday's series opener at Wrigley Field against the crosstown-rival Chicago White Sox. It will be Horton's first major-league start after he made his big-league debut on May 10 in a relief role against the New York Mets, yielding three earned runs on four hits (one homer) while walking none and striking out five in four innings for his first career win. While the 23-year-old pitching prospect's first MLB outing wasn't ideal, he did strike out five batters in a bulk-relief role and should remain in Chicago's starting rotation until left-hander Shota Imanaga (hamstring) returns from the injured list. In a matchup against a White Sox team that is dead-last in OPS (.620) on the season, fantasy managers should have Horton in their starting lineups on Friday.
