Jack Kochanowicz Placed on 15-Day IL with Elbow Inflammation

The Los Angeles Angels placed 25-year-old right-hander Jack Kochanowicz on the 15-day injured list Sunday due to right elbow inflammation. The move comes immediately after a disastrous outing on Saturday against the Los Angeles Dodgers, where Kochanowicz surrendered seven runs while recording only one out. The injury designation provides a potential explanation for his sudden loss of command and effectiveness as the Angels look to stabilize their pitching rotation for the coming weeks.
