The 24-year-old rookie sports a 2-2 record, 3.67 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 24:21 K:BB over 27 innings this season. The Halos recalled Mitch Farris from Triple-A Salt Lake to provide bullpen depth during Klassen's absence.

Decent despite loss
Klassen (2-2) took the loss against Cleveland on Monday, allowing three runs (two earned) on six hits and three walks while striking out three batters over 5.1 innings.
Analisi
Klassen didn't have good control, as he threw only 54 of 90 pitches for strikes and walked three batters. Nonetheless, he kept the Angels in the game by holding the Guardians without an extra-base hit while falling two outs shy of a quality start. Klassen began his MLB career in poor fashion by giving up six earned runs over 4.2 frames across his first two appearances, but he's been much better since, yielding only five earned runs in his past four outings spanning 22.1 innings. That's brought his season ERA down to a respectable 3.67, but the right-hander still has a poor 1.63 WHIP and an ominous 24:21 K:BB across 27 innings overall. Klassen will almost certainly need to bring his walk rate down to experience prolonged MLB success, and he'll look to show growth in that area in his next start, which is tentatively scheduled to be a home matchup against the Yankees.
