Chicago Cubs’ starter is trending in wrong direction with injury per report
The Chicago Cubs aren’t off to a good start here in 2026. After 10 games, the Cubs are 4-6 and in last place in the NL Central losing series to the Washington Nationals and Cleveland Guardians so far.
To make matters worse, Matthew Boyd and Cade Horton both suffered injuries and are on the IL. While Boyd is more precautionary, there’s not very good news with Horton. As soon as he threw a pitch in the second inning vs. the Guardians on Friday, he immediately looked in the dugout. The Cubs removed him and then announced he was going on the IL.
Now, a few days later, the news isn’t very good for Horton and the Cubs.
Cade Horton to see specialist in Texas
Horton underwent an MRI following his exit and for Cubs fans, it’s not good news. Jesse Rogers reported on ESPN 1000’s Kap and JHood Tuesday that the MRI was not clean and not good. He then went on to say that Horton will visit Dr. Keith Meister in Texas on Tuesday for a further evaluation.
That’s not great news at all.
**Breaking News** Per @JesseRogersESPN on Kap and JHood on @Espn1000 Cubs star Cade Horton will visit Dr. Keith Meister in Texas today after his MRI was not clean and not good. Trending down a bad path.

The worry is that Horton will have to undergo Tommy John surgery which will certainly sideline him the rest of the season. Horton is coming off an injury he suffered last season that caused him to miss the final weeks of the season including the postseason.
Horton had Tommy John surgery in 2021 while in college. In his two starts this season, Horton pitched 7.1 innings with a 2.45 ERA. Chicago is also missing Justin Steele who should return at some point this season after undergoing reconstructive surgery last season.
