Matthew Kurek brings strike-throwing size and starter upside to Fairfield
Matthew Kurek is a 6-foot-4 right-handed pitcher who arrived at Fairfield after a strong Summit High School run, where he posted a 2.64 ERA with 77 strikeouts in 71.2 career innings and helped win a conference title. His appeal is the blend of size, a competitive strike-zone approach, and a track record of missing bats without getting rattled in big moments. He looks like a fit for a staff that values projectable arms with room to grow into more velocity and command.
