Repertoire: mid-90s fastball, developing breaking pitch/changeup
Kunz has taken over as closer for the defending College World Series Champion Beavers, replacing 2006 5th round selection Kevin Gunderson (Atlanta). Kunz is a groundball pitcher with a heavy fastball, he needs to develop a stronger secondary pitch to progress to the next level. At present, Kunz is likely a supplemental first round selection.
