[ＢＡ] 13. Kevin Munson
After picking projectable, high-risk pitchers with their second- and third-
round choices in 2010, the Diamondbacks went with a safer choice in Munson, who
served as closer for James Madison. He went straight to South Bend after
signing for $243,000 and pitched well there before ending the season with
Visalia. Munson is a sinker/slider pitcher with deception to his delivery. His
fastball sits comfortably at 92-94 mph with good life, sink and run. His hard
slider, a legitimate above-average offering, is a swing-and-miss pitch that he
can throw in any count. He has a curveball but it's not functional right now,
and he may not need it out of the bullpen. He's a gamer with great makeup.
Munson spent part of his time at James Medisonas a catcher, so his arm is
relativelyfresh. He relies on his slider too much at times and will have to
sharpen his command. He never started a game in college, so the Diamondbacks
will keep him in the role he's comfortable with. He projects as a solid
reliever but probably not a closer. New GM Kevin Towers is noted for his
bullpen construction, so Munson's development will be watched closely. In all
likelihood, he'll be the first player from Arizona's 2010 draft class to make
the big leagues, but it may not be until 2012.
