	Cubs manager Craig Counsell said Cade Horton is looking at a “15-16 month recovery.” Ari Koslow Fri, Apr 17th	Peterson (triceps) sustained a right triceps strain in late February. The injury will prevent him from being available for the start of the season. Bruno Mulé Fri, Mar 6th

Notes
	Cade Horton broke through in 2025 with a 2.67 ERA and 1.09 WHIP across 118 innings, finishing second in NL Rookie of the Year voting after posting a 144 ERA+. His underlying profile was strong but not overpowering, as his 3.58 FIP and 7.4 K/9 suggest more command-and-contact management than bat-missing dominance. The 2026 projections push him closer to the mid-3.00s in ERA with a modest bump in workload, which frames Horton as a high-floor SP3/SP4. Without elite strikeout volume, his value will hinge on efficiency, wins, and ratio stability in a competitive Cubs rotation. Draft him as a steady innings stabilizer, but avoid paying for a repeat sub-2.75 ERA unless there's tangible growth in swing-and-miss. Kelly Kirby - FantasyPros
