'A little better next time': Kochanowicz finding his groove ANAHEIM -- Rookie right-hander Jack Kochanowicz has started to settle in after two rough starts to open his career and passed a tough test a...
Staying in rotation Kochanowicz is scheduled to start Sunday against Atlanta at Angel Stadium.
Impact Kochanowicz will make a second straight turn through the rotation and stick around as the club's No. 5 starter over Davis Daniel, who was optioned to Triple-A Salt on Tuesday. The rookie right-hander struck out two batters and allowed just two runs over 7.2 innings en route to claiming his first big-league victory his last time out Sunday against the Nationals, but Kochanowicz was lit up for 12 runs (11 earned) in seven innings in his first two starts with the Angels back in July before he was sent back to the minors.

Successful spot start Kochanowicz (1-2) earned the victory Sunday, allowing two runs on six hits and one walk over 7.2 innings against the Nationals. He struck out two.
Impact Kochanowicz was recalled from Double-A to make the spot start, holding the Nationals scoreless through seven prior to a homer by Jacob Young to lead off the eighth frame. He remained in the game, recording two more outs but was pulled following an RBI single by Luis Garcia. Despite the two late runs, Kochanowicz did more than enough to earn his first big-league win and showed massive improvement over his previous two starts when he allowed 11 earned runs over seven innings. Kochanowicz is likely to be sent back to the minors following this outing, but it was a promising start for the 23-year-old rookie, who lowered his ERA from 14.14 to 7.98.

Making spot start Kochanowicz will start Sunday's game against the Nationals, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports.
Impact With a rainout forcing the Angels into a doubleheader Wednesday, the team was in need of a starter for Sunday's game and recalled Kochanowicz from Double-A Rocket City to fill the void. The 23-year-old has made two starts for the Angels this season, surrendering 11 runs across seven frames. He isn't a recommended streaming option for Sunday.

The 23-year-old has made two starts for the Angels this season, surrendering 11 runs across seven frames for a miserable 14.14 ERA. He should be avoided in most fantasy formats.

Back in big leagues The Angels recalled Kochanowicz from Double-A Rocket City on Saturday.
Impact Kochanowicz was recalled from Double-A on Wednesday before being optioned back two days later without making an appearance. He'll now rejoin the Angels and will most likely be used as a long relief option out of the bullpen. Jose Marte (illness) was placed on the 15-day injured list in a corresponding move.

Impact Kochanowicz's first stint in the big leagues was not promising, as he was torched for 12 runs (11 earned) over seven innings in his two starts. The big right-hander will return to Rocket City, where he holds a 4.55 ERA and 79:23 K:BB over 91 innings in 2024.

Allows seven runs in loss Kochanowicz (0-2) took the loss against the Athletics on Saturday, allowing seven runs on seven hits and three walks with four strikeouts over four innings.
Impact Kochanowicz surrendered a three-run home run to Brent Rooker in the first frame and then four more runs in the fourth. The rookie has yielded 11 earned runs in his first seven major-league innings with five strikeouts and three walks. Should he remain in the rotation, the 23-year-old lines up for a rematch with the Athletics next week.

Getting start Saturday Kochanowicz will start Saturday's game against the Athletics in Oakland.
Impact The rookie right-hander will be making his second turn through the rotation despite laboring in his MLB debut versus Seattle back on July 11, when he lasted just three innings while surrendering five runs (four earned) on seven hits and no walks. Kochanowicz's spot in the rotation is far from secure over the long haul, so another poor showing in Oakland could put him at risk of a demotion to the minors.

Hit hard early in debut Kochanowicz (0-1) was charged with the loss against the Mariners on Thursday, allowing five runs (four earned) on seven hits over three innings while striking out one.
Impact Kochanowicz got beat up out of the gate in his major league debut, allowing four consecutive hits to open the contest while also hitting Luke Raley with a pitch. The 23-year-old would allow four runs in the frame, though only three would be charged to him on account of a fielding error from Luis Guillorme. Kochanowicz then went 1-2-3 through the second before surrendering a leadoff homer to Cal Raleigh in the third, though the right-hander would at least make it through the inning before being relieved by Kenny Rosenberg to begin the fourth. It was an ugly first start for the rookie, who will look to bounce back strong following the All-Star break if given another opportunity.

Officially promoted The Angels recalled Kochanowicz from Double-A Rocket City on Thursday ahead of his start versus the Mariners.
Impact Kochanowicz will be making his MLB debut Thursday after posting a 1.85 ERA and 0.94 WHIP across 34 innings during his last five Double-A starts. Davis Daniel was optioned to Triple-A on Wednesday, so the fifth spot in the Angels' rotation currently belongs to Kochanowicz, but the 23-year-old right-hander may be sent back to the minor leagues if he begins to struggle against MLB hitters. In order to free up a spot on the active roster, the Angels optioned Jose Marte to Triple-A.

Making MLB debut Thursday Kochanowicz will be recalled from Double-A Rocket City to make his major-league debut Thursday versus the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
Impact Kochanowicz has thrown two complete games over his last three outings, although his overall numbers -- a 4.55 ERA and 79:23 K:BB over 91 innings covering 16 starts -- leave something to be desired. He's taking the rotation spot vacated by Davis Daniel, who has been optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake by the Angels.

Optioned to Triple-A Kochanowicz was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake by the Angels on Friday.
Impact Kochanowicz made a couple scoreless Cactus League appearances but that wasn't enough to keep him from being an early cut. The right-hander is in need of more seasoning after posting a 5.27 ERA in 21 starts between High-A Tri-City and Double-A Rocket City in 2023.
