Jake
Bunz

Tall, strong-legged reliever powered 89-91 mph fastballs to the plate from a high three-quarter slot with good down plane. A hard 76-78 mph curve was his top pitch. Tight rotation with 2400+ spin rates. Induced plenty of bad swings, especially against left handed hitters during his two inning, four strikeout relief appearance. Bunz is a Day Three (rounds 11-20) prospect for this year’s draft.
