Minors: SNY talks to AFL Scouts

At SNY, Michael Salfino speaks with a few scouts and team advisors about Mets players who are taking part in the Arizona Fall League.

Deric McKamey, advisor to the Cardinals and author of Minor League Baseball Analyst told Salfino the following about Mets RHP Eddie Kunz:

“I’m not as big a fan as some scouts.  He throws 89-to-94 with a slider in the low-80s and a developing change.  His command is an issue, a big problem for a short reliever.  He struggled with his control for Oregon State even.

“I see him as a notch below an Aaron Heilman, more of a seventh-inning guy.”

Salfino also talks with scouts and Baseball America’s Jim Callis about LHP Adam Bostick and Eddie Comacho; RHP Carlos Muniz; 1B Mike Carp; OF Caleb Stewart; and some of the major NL East prospects playing in Arizona.
