Penn State’s Workhorse RHP Brings Versatility, Strike-Throwing, and Volume
In the 2026 season, Horwat emerged as Penn State’s most-used pitcher, leading the team with 25 appearances while working 41 innings, posting a 5.49 ERA and 33 strikeouts; that usage profile points to a durable, multi-inning reliever who can soak up leverage outs and give a staff length. He was also a proven Big Ten contributor in 2025, showing he can handle conference pressure, and his appeal is the combination of power-arm pedigree, strike-throwing, and bullpen flexibility. If you need a competitive righty who can bridge innings and isn’t afraid of the moment, he’s a useful fit.
