I don’t think Horton should pitch an inning in the playoffs , and that was before the Houston start. He has been useful but , nothing more than that . Low strikeout numbers and this despite mostly having favorable matchups most of the time .
i look at Horton much like i look at Shaw . I still like the future , but in a year when they are looking to win with a top 5 position player on an expiring contract , I really not interested in waiting for them to figure things out at the big league level .
