9/15/14 - Last fall we saw Kutzke top out of 75 mph with his fastball with below average command. Standing 6-foot-5 there was some hope for a velocity bump and obviously he has put the work in to make that happen. On Saturday against KC Elite, the tall righty sat 82-83 mph and touched 85. He showed a 66-68 mph 12/6 breaking ball and 75 mph change-up as well. Kutze threw a high percentage of strikes and worked down in the zone collecting ground ball after ground ball in four plus innings of work.
