Spencer Horwitz is scheduled to rehab with Class AA Altoona and will make his organizational debut this afternoon at Chesapeake. Horwitz is scheduled to bat leadoff and play first base for the Curve. First pitch is slated for 1:05 p.m.
Jon Mozes, Altoona’s director of communications and broadcasting, said Horwitz is expected to play five innings today.
Horwitz (thumb extensor) recently transitioned his rehab to Pirate City in Bradenton, Fla. and participated in live batting practice against Dauri Moreta, another big-league player rehabbing an injury, and other minor-league pitchers on Tuesday.
Horwitz could be in store for a rather lengthier rehab stint considering he didn’t get any in-game action this spring.
