7/02/19

A lean athletic frame at 5-foot-6, 110 pounds. Ran an 8.25 in the 60 yard dash. Offensively- the switch hitter stands in the box with feet shoulder width apart. Simple load actions. Quick direct path to the baseball. Short compact swing. Stays balanced throughout the swing. Has upside with the bat. Defensively- the infielder has fast twitch actions. Gets rid of the baseball quickly. Fields the ball slightly off center. Throws from a mid ¾ arm slot. Pitching- the right handed pitcher displayed a repeatable delivery. Kurtz worked with a two pitch mix. FB peaked at 72 MPH. CB ranged from 55-57 MPH. Kurtz has upside both at the plate and on the mound. Kurtz will be one to follow as he continues to develop.
