Spencer Horwitz is a 25-year-old, left-handed hitting first baseman. In November, he was added to the 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft.
Last year he was number 18 on our top 40 prospect list. This year he’ll be much higher. The power he’s shown the last couple of seasons came from an adjustment in his swing. From Tom_M’s post:attributes the power spike to a simplification of Horwitz’s swing. Previously, he’d had a bat waggle in his setup that disrupted his timing. His new swing starts with his hands still and loaded close behind his back shoulder, giving him a direct path to the ball.
With our team, he will look to have a good spring, get noticed, and then have a great start to the season in Buffalo and wait for an opening. Or get traded to the Brewers.
