The latest minor league moves from around baseball…
- The Twins have agreed to a minor league deal with left-hander Mitch Horacek, reporter Robert Murray tweets. A ninth-round pick for the Orioles in the 2013 draft, Horacek has a 4.21 ERA, 8.9 K/9, and 2.97 K/BB rate over 658 2/3 career minor league innings, with the last two seasons spent in Colorado’s farm system. Horacek has worked exclusively as a reliever for the last three years and he got his first taste of Triple-A ball in 2019, though he posted a disastrous 18.75 ERA over 12 frames for Albuquerque of the Pacific Coast League. The 27-year-old did deliver much better numbers at the Double-A level, however, and Minnesota could be betting that Horacek performs better in a less homer-happy environment than the PCL.

Interesting pickup. If this year doesn’t work out for him I see him as a candidate to play Indy ball

Ahh, so this is where he ended up after leaving the Watchmen!

He was one of Gabe Kotter’s students, but his dreams were his ticket out.

Maybe better luck pitching in T-ball!
