Spencer Horwitz - Page 9 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Hits fifth in Pittsburgh debut Horwitz went 0-for-2 on Saturday against the Phillies.

Impact Horwitz was sidelined for the first seven weeks of the regular season and made his Pirates debut Saturday night. While he occupied the fifth spot in the order, Horwitz was pulled for a pinch-hitter when lefty Matt Strahm took the mound. While he could have been pulled as he continues to build up stamina, this wasn't a positive sign for him to regularly be in the lineup against southpaws.

Impact Horwitz has been on the injured list all season while working his way back from a thumb procedure he underwent in February to relieve some pain in his right wrist. He's been playing in rehab games since late April and has slashed .255/.294/.383 with two RBI and seven runs scored across 51 plate appearances. Now fully healthy, he's expected to take over as Pittsburgh's primary first baseman. Matt Gorski was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis in a corresponding move.

Still finding groove Horwitz (wrist) has gone 4-for-28 with five strikeouts on his rehab assignment split between Double-A Altoona and Triple-A Indianapolis.

Impact Horwitz has been on assignment since April 27 and has needed extensive ramp-up time after missing all of spring training. He still hasn't found a rhythm at the plate, though he has struck out at a reasonable 16.7 percent clip. The Pirates need offensive help, but they may opt to let Horwitz start to hit better before activating him.
