Cubs Call Up Cade Horton for MLB Debut
The Chicago Cubs have called up top pitching prospect Cade Horton from Triple-A Iowa to bolster their rotation after injuries to Shota Imanaga and Justin Steele. Horton, ranked among baseball's top 50 prospects, has excelled in Triple-A with a 1.24 ERA and 33 strikeouts in 29 innings, but concerns remain about his walk rate as he prepares to face the New York Mets. Manager Craig Counsell chose not to name Horton as the official starter, instead beginning with a bullpen game led by Brad Keller, potentially to manage expectations and pressure for Horton's debut. Horton overcame injuries last year and has earned praise from Cubs officials for his progress and resilience. The team's decision to ease him into the majors has sparked debate among analysts and fans. Horton's arrival is seen as a pivotal moment as the Cubs aim to strengthen their pitching staff for a playoff push.
