Draft Prospects

School: St. Ignatius College Prep, San Francisco. Committed/Drafted: Stanford. Age At Draft: 18.4.
Horn is a legitimate two-way player with a quick arm that has led to 95 mph fastballs on the mound and a quick lefthanded bat as a hitter. He has a 6-foot-2, 200-pound frame and does a nice job keeping his hands inside the ball with impressive power during batting practice and solid extra-base power to the gaps in games. As he adds strength to his still-projectable frame, he should begin tapping into home run power with more frequency. He’s an average runner but has solid body control to go with a plus arm that should be able to keep him on the left side of the infield in some capacity. As a pitcher, Horn has a lively, tailing fastball that sits in the low 90s and touches 95. His go-to secondary is a changeup around 80 mph that plays nicely off the fastball and dives and runs away from lefthanded hitters. When he maintains his arm speed, it’s a solid swing-and-miss pitch. He also has a mid-70s curveball with spin in the 2,500 rpm range. Horn is a Stanford commit, which typically signals a difficult sign for pro teams even with talent that fits in the first three rounds. -
