    A 6-foot-6, 220-pound righthander committed to Virginia, Kochanowicz is a projectable arm out of the Northeast with a high, three-quarter arm action and clean delivery. Despite his long frame and levers, Kochanowicz has a strong feel for throwing strikes. Over the summer, he sat mostly in the 89-92 mph range, but his fastball ticked up slightly this spring and scouts have seen him closer to 90-94 mph. He throws a mid-70s curveball that has solid 11-to-5 spin and good depth, but he casts the pitch at times and it can also get loopy. At the moment, it projects as a solid-average breaking ball, but Kochanowicz will need to improve the power and consistency of the pitch for scouts to grade it any higher than that. He also throws a firm, 85-87 mph changeup that shows promise, but it’s closer to a third average offering. While Kochanowicz doesn’t have a single plus pitch, it wouldn’t take much additional strength to get his fastball there on velocity alone. All of his offerings play up thanks to his extension off the mound and a slight crossfire delivery.
