11Ks per nine innings, but 5 walks per nine innings in his career as a minor leaguer. 26 years old. Must have good stuff.

Horn was with the Cubs until spring training this year. They protected him from the RUle 5 last offseason then traded him to the White Sox for their #30 prospect. And now he's had a real bad month of April

He was drafted by the wrong Sox then traded to the Cubs in 21 then traded back (?) to CWS.
I guess Breslow must be very familiar with him.

Cubs and White Sox: "he's got great stuff. Through our superior analytics and player development system, we can unlock his potential"
Red Sox: "hi, I'm Andrew Bailey. Throw the ball down the middle."

I just watched his last two outings and the fastball is good, 95 with a bit above average IVB, straight, from an average release height. It does have a good Whiff %, 13th/137 in AAA (min 100 4-seamers).
His cutter/slider/sweeper thing(s) is just a muddled mess coming out of his hand. His curveball looks better than that, but nothing great and not much swing and miss so far.
The way you read about him, I was thinking it was going to be insane stuff with buckshot accuracy, but it seems less interesting than that after a quick look.
