Things looked pretty grim for Texas Rangers left-handerAndrew Heaneyduring a 2021 season that saw him work to a 5.83 ERA in 30 outings between the Angels and Yankees. However, the southpaw rewarded the Dodgers with 16 outings (14 starts) of 3.10 ERA ball alongside a monstrous 35.5% K% in what marked a career year, parlaying it into a two-year deal with the Rangers this winter. Heaney dealt with shoulder issues last season and was once again bitten by the long ball, ranking in the 4th percentile ...

Andrew Heaney was great in his brief stint as a Dodger, going 4-4 with a 3.10 ERA, 2.83 xFIP, and 3.39 xERA in 72 IP. Always a strikeout artist despite middling overall results, Heaney raised his game with a brand new slider last year that recorded a 24.1 SwStr%, 44.8% chase rate, and 39.4 Zone%. Paired with a 2,442 RPM fastball providing a 13.3 SwStr% and 55.3 Zone%, it's easy to project something close to a repeat of his 35.5 K% and 6.1 BB%. Heaney abandoned his curve entirely last season and...

The Texas Rangers signed free-agent left-hander Andrew Heaney to an undisclosed deal on Tuesday, according to a source. Heaney already had a few three-year offers on the open market, but he was pushing for a fourth year. It's unclear if he got that with Texas after throwing 75 innings for the Los Angeles Dodgers in 2022. The Toronto Blue Jays and San Francisco Giants were also interested in the 31-year-old southpaw. Starting pitching has been a priority for Texas this offseason, as they've ...

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Andrew Heaney struggled in his Monday outing against the San Francisco Giants. Heaney threw 5.1 innings and gave up six earned runs, four home runs, and a walk. He did strike out eight batters, log 19 swinging strikes, and post a 38% CSW rate, but the home runs certainly didn't help. Monday marked the first time this season that Heaney has given up more than three earned runs in a start. He's currently sporting a 2.94 ERA and a 4.07 FIP in 52 innings of work...

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Andrew Heaney will not make his scheduled start against the San Diego Padres on Sunday. The Dodgers have yet to give an explanation as to why Heaney won't take the mound, nor have they announced who will be Sunday's starter in place of Heaney. The 31-year-old has made 10 starts in 2022, posting a 2-1 record, 2.12 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and 70 strikeouts over 46 2/3 innings of work. Stay tuned as the Dodgers are sure to offer up more details in the next day or two.

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Andrew Heaney is expected to make his next scheduled start according to manager Dave Roberts after he was lifted from Saturday's contest early. The lefty took a comebacker off his throwing arm in the third inning, but he admitted after the game that nothing tightened up afterwards and the team just wanted to be cautious. Makes sense since Heaney has struggled with injuries and they were up 8-2 at the time of his removal. His next turn up in the rotation will...

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Andrew Heaney (arm) exited Saturday's game against the Kansas City Royals due to a left arm contusion. He took a line drive off his left arm and was removed from the game. The 31-year-old allowed two runs on three hits while striking out five over three innings before exiting. The severity of his injury is unknown, and he is considered day-to-day. He owns a 1.16 ERA, 1.00 WHIP, and 42 strikeouts over 31 innings in 2022. It is unclear if Heaney will make his next ...

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Andrew Heaney allowed three unearned runs during his club's 8-3 win over the Padres on Saturday, but was credited with a no-decision since he fell one out shy of pitching five innings. Heaney pitched well by retiring nine-straight batters at one point, but a potential inning-ending double play ball that was muffed by Gavin Lux in the fourth allowed three runs to come around to score that inning. Through 28 IP on the year, the lefty owns an outstanding 0.64 ...

The Los Angeles Dodgers activated left-handed starting pitcher Andrew Heaney (shoulder) from the injured list on Wednesday. The 31-year-old has made just three starts for the Dodgers this season, the most recent of which came on June 16 against the Cleveland Guardians. Overall, Heaney has thrown 15.1 innings for Los Angeles, striking out 23 batters while allowing just nine hits, four walks, one earned run, and a home run. He'll rejoin a Dodgers rotation that also includes Julio Urias, Clayton...

Los Angeles Dodgers left-hander Andrew Heaney (shoulder) will likely return from the injured list to start on Wednesday against the Washington Nationals, according to skipper Dave Roberts. The Dodgers play on 18 consecutive days to open the second half of the season, so they will go with a six-man starting rotation during that stretch. Heaney, 31, threw five innings in his final minor league rehab start last week, so he's ready to return to LA's rotation for the second half of the season. He ...
