Chicago Cubs Minor League Wrap: May 16
BJ Murray Jr.Don’t let the superficial numbers fool you on Cade Horton today. He was dominating.
A couple of moves to fill the hole left by the loss of Curt Casali. Catcher Caleb Knight was promoted to Triple-A Iowa from Tennessee. Catcher Wally Soto was promoted from Low-A Myrtle Beach to Double-A Tennessee.
Iowa Cubs
The Iowa Cubs beat the Syracuse Mets, 10-4.
Cade Horton got his first Triple-A win after he allowed three runs on four hits over five innings. He walked one and struck out three. Horton had a no-hitter going after four innings when the BABIP gods struck in the fifth. Horton allowed three runs on four hits in the fifth, but three of the four hits were weak bloopers.
