Came up in trade discussions
Cubs president of baseball operations Jed Hoyer said Horton's name came up in discussions before last week's trade deadline, but the team was unwilling to move the young pitcher, Sahadev Sharma of The Athletic reports.
Análise
Chicago was reportedly interested in All-Stars MacKenzie Gore and Joe Ryan, but it appears acquiring either pitcher would have required moving Horton, and the team was unwilling to do so. Horton has rewarded the club's faith recently, as the rookie has rattled off four consecutive scoreless starts totaling 22.2 innings. On the season, the 23-year-old righty has an impressive 3.18 ERA across 79.1 innings. While Gore or Ryan would have provided the Cubs' rotation with a bigger name for the stretch run, the team clearly sees long-term ace potential in Horton.

Extends scoreless streak in win
Horton (6-3) picked up the win Wednesday, allowing two hits over 5.2 innings in a 6-1 victory over the Reds. He struck out six without walking a batter.
Análise
The rookie right-hander extended his scoreless streak to 23.1 innings with another sharp performance, and he didn't issue a free pass for the first time since May 16. Over his four-start shutout stretch, Horton has posted a 0.75 WHIP and 16:7 K:BB, and he's won his last three trips to the mound. He'll look to keep rolling in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next week in Toronto.
