He needed 68 pitches with only 35 thrown for strikes as his four walks were one shy of a season-high. Kochanowicz went 2-0 with a 2.03 ERA in five April starts but, in May, has pitched to a 7.85 ERA while going 0-4 in six outings. It doesn't get any easier as his next scheduled start is lined up for Saturday in a road start against the Dodgers.

Fantasy Impact
Kochanowicz kept the Blue Jays off the scoreboard until the fourth inning when Toronto scored a single run to take a 1-0 advantage. However, the righthander was unable to record an out in the fifth as Toronto plated seven runs in the inning to take an 8-0 lead. Six of the runs - five earned - were charged to Kochanowicz as all six batters he faced in the inning reached and scored. After going 2-0 with a 2.03 ERA in five April starts, Kochanowicz is 0-2 with a 6.97 ERA in two May outings. Overall, he is 2-2 with a 3.97 ERA and a 30:23 K:BB ratio in 45.1 innings.

Jack Kochanowicz went 6.1 innings on Sunday and allowed two runs on five hits while walking three and striking out six as the Angels dropped a 5-1 decision to the Mets.
Fantasy Impact
Kochanowicz pitched well enough to earn a quality start on Sunday, but was outdueled by New York's Clay Holmes and was saddled with his first loss of the year instead. The righthander made one mistake that cost him as Mark Vientos belted a two-run homer in the top of the fourth to give the Mets a 2-1 lead. Kochanowicz has not allowed more than three runs in a start since his first start of the year on March 29 and has been a pleasant surprise to the Angels' rotation this season. After going 3-11 with a 6.81 ERA in 23 starts last year, Kochanowicz is 2-1 with a 3.05 ERA in seven starts this season and has limited opponents to a .192 batting average, allowing 29 hits in 41.1 innings. He's slated to take on the Blue Jays, in Toronto, on Saturday.
