Cade Horton Strikes Out Six In Triple-A Debut
6 months agoChicago Cubs starting pitching prospect Cade Horton was promoted to Triple-A last week and made his first start on May 4. In this outing, he tossed four innings of two-run ball with four walks and six strikeouts. After dominating Double-A at the beginning of this season and last year, Horton faced a bit of a challenge in Triple-A. The 22-year-old allowed just two runs throughout his four starts at Double-A this April but already matched that total in just one Triple-A start. However, the number two prospect in the Cubs system continued to showcase his elite swing-and-miss potential, suggesting that he is more than capable of handling Triple-A competition. Horton is expected to be up with the major league roster later in the summer and should be rostered in all dynasty and keeper formats.
