I appreciate that.
Thank you for having me.
Hope you guys are good.
It's warm today in Chicago.
Oh, my God.
Oh, we know.
Oh, yeah.
Cade Horton is the best pitcher on the staff.
I said it preseason and I'm standing by it.
I just think this is his season.
The reason it's funny I liked him heading into the year is that I thought the strikeouts would tick up.
Last year he was on a pitch count.
He wasn't throwing like more than 80-ish, 85 pitches a start down the stretch.
And as a result of that, he just pounded the zone and got a ton of outs.
And he was incredibly effective.
One of the best pitchers in baseball.
My thesis was that he would lean into more whiff.
But we didn't really see that in this Saturday's game where he threw against the Nationals.
And I'm curious to see how he develops as a pitcher and whether that's something that he embraces more or whether we just see Wrigley wind blowing in.
He's throwing a bunch of foreseam.
