Early life

Eddie Kunz was born in Portland, Oregon.[1]

High School/College Career

He attended Parkrose High School, where he played football, basketball, and baseball. He was a preseason All-American second-team in 2007 for the Oregon State Beavers.[2]

Professional career

Minor Leagues

On August 24, 2007, the New York Mets signed Kunz after they selected him 42nd overall in the 2007 Major League Baseball Draft.[3] Less than a year later, on August 3, 2008, he was called up to the Major Leagues from the Double-A affiliate, Binghamton Mets, after having a 2.79 ERA with 27 saves in 44 games.[4]

Major Leagues

That day, in his Major League debut, he pitched a scoreless seventh inning.[5] However, two weeks later, after struggling and the Mets' trade for Luis Ayala, he was demoted back to the minors.[6]
