Kurth is listed at 6-foot-1 187-pounds with strength in his lower half. During BP, the RHH, leveraged the ground in order to generate power, especially to the pull side to record a max EV of 89 mph. In the field Kurth projects more as a corner infielder as he is able to work through the ball with rhythm and pairs it with an accurate arm up to 76 mph. On the mound, he featured a 3-pitch mix which included a FB that sat 78-79 mph with run and finish to the pitch. As for his offspeed offerings, he spun in a 10/4 CB that has the potential to be a swing and miss pitch and a CH with fade/depth through the zone.
