Horton is the best offensive threat among a weak college SS class. He has gap power, a solid eye, and above average speed on the basepaths. Scouts believe his arm is strong enough to remain at SS, but he needs to prove he can transition from the aluminum to the wood bat. Horton is a likely second round selection.
