Perhaps he was throwing his secondary pitches more often in an attempt to be able to command them, and the higher walk rate is just a by-product of that, perhaps he was throwing a higher percentage of strikes, and it just didn't happen to be displayed by his BB rates, I don't know. But I'm curious as to what he was working on that he seems so positive in his results, despite the poor numbers. I guess a strong Spring Training would go a long way in suggesting that perhaps his performance here wasn't so awful afterall.

Unfortunately, his performance in the AFL did pretty much kill off his trade value as anything more than a throw-in this winter. Doesn’t really matter to Kunz’s career.
