Jack Kochanowicz News: Optioned after rocky start

The Angels optioned Kochanowicz to Triple-A Salt Lake on Thursday.

The transaction comes one day after Kochanowicz was pummeled for 11 runs (10 earned) over 3.1 innings in a loss to the Rangers. The Angels will have to fill Kochanowicz's rotation spot next week, with Caden Dana among those likely to be under consideration.
