If you think Ferris is better than Horton, you’re going on a limb and disagreeing with the major draft publications. Only MLB Pipeline rated Ferris above Horton and since then, Pipeline has changed their mind with Horton not only ranked higher but and even ranked as a top 100 prospect across MLB (also no prospect publication ranks a guy in the top 100 who hasn’t thrown a pro pitch if they think he’ll settle in as a closer).
Here were the draft rankings:
Horton - BA: 23, ESPN: 22, FG: 12, MLB: 24, Prospects Live: 12
Ferris - BA: 34, ESPN, 41, FG: 43, MLB: 19, PL: 27
(Also Horton has two pitches with a 60 or better FV and Ferris only has one pitch even at 60, so you’re not even using the same closer logic on Ferris you do with Horton.)
