Padres released RHP Eddie Kunz. | ||||||
Kunz was a supplemental first-round pick of the Mets in 2007, but he has failed to live up to the hype. The 26-year-old right-hander hasn't pitched in the majors since 2008 and posted a 5.77 ERA and 39/39 K/BB ratio over 87 1/3 innings last season between Double- and Triple-A. | ||||||

Padres acquired RHP Eddie Kunz from the Mets for 1B Allan Dykstra. | ||||||
Kunz was a supplemental first round pick of the Mets back in 2007 but has struggled mightily in the minors both as a starter and a reliever. The Padres will hope that a change of scenery will light a fire in the big-bodied right-hander. | ||||||

Mets sent RHP Eddie Kunz outright to Triple-A Buffalo. | ||||||
The 24-year-old right-hander posted a 5.34 ERA and 63/68 K/BB ratio in 12 starts and 30 relief appearances with Double-A Binghamton this past season. The former 2007 supplemental first-round pick continues to be a massive disappointment. | ||||||
