Heaney allowed two hits and a walk while striking out eight over four scoreless innings versus the Giants on Sunday. He did not factor into the decision.
EDGE Analysis
Heaney threw just 65 pitches (44 strikes) in the outing, which was his shortest since Aug. 13. Despite the short start, he was able to tally eight strikes for the fifth time in his last six starts, and he kept runs off the board for the first time since July 27. The southpaw now has a 2.66 ERA, 1.05 WHIP and 92:16 K:BB through 61 innings across 13 starts this season. He's projected for a home start versus the Cardinals next week.

Heaney (3-2) earned the win during Sunday's 11-2 victory over San Diego, allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks with six strikeouts in five innings.
EDGE Analysis
Heaney fell behind early, surrendering a Jake Cronenworth solo home run in the second inning and an unearned run following an error in the third, but Los Angeles rallied with 11 unanswered runs to put him in line for the victory. The 31-year-old held the opposition under two earned runs for the first time in six turns, though he matched a season-high by issuing three free passes. Heaney carries a 2.84 ERA and 1.07 WHIP into his next start, projected to come next weekend in San Francisco.

Heaney (2-2) allowed six runs on six hits, a walk and a hit batsman while striking out eight over 5.1 innings as he took the loss versus the Giants on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
All of the runs against Heaney came via the home run -- he allowed four long balls in this outing and has given up 10 over his last four starts. This was arguably his worst start of the season, and it raised his ERA to 2.94 with a 1.08 WHIP and 78:13 K:BB through 52 innings across 11 starts. The southpaw is projected for a road start in San Diego this weekend.

Heaney will start Monday against the Giants, Jack Harris of the Los Angeles Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Heaney doesn't have the best health track record, so when it was announced that he was no longer the scheduled starter Sunday against the Padres, it looked potentially concerning. As it turns out, the Dodgers simply wanted to give their rotation some extra rest, so Ryan Pepiot will be called up to start Sunday while Heaney and the rest of the rotation get pushed back a day.

EDGE Analysis
Heaney was initially listed as the projected starter for Sunday's matchup, but it's not yet clear who will take the mound for the series finale against San Diego. It's not known whether Heaney is dealing with an injury or when he'll make his next start.

Heaney did not factor into the decision Tuesday against the Mets, allowing three runs (two earned) on seven hits. He struck out eight and did not allow a walk.
EDGE Analysis
While he allowed seven hits over five innings, Heaney did not allow a free pass and thus limited the damage to three runs. In his 10 starts, the southpaw has recorded at least a strikeout per inning in nine but has only reached six innings twice. Heaney now owns a strong 2.12 ERA and 1.05 WHIP and is next slated to face San Diego at home this weekend.

Heaney (2-1) earned the win over Milwaukee on Wednesday, pitching six innings and allowing two runs on four hits and one walk while striking out 10 batters.
EDGE Analysis
Heaney fell behind early after giving up a first-inning solo homer to Willy Adames, but the lefty hurler surrendered just one more run after that. He racked up 20 swinging strikes and finished with 10 punchouts for the second straight game. Heaney struggled despite the big strikeout total in his previous outing, but he registered one of his strongest starts of the campaign Wednesday. The veteran appears to have unlocked his best stuff since joining Los Angeles in the offseason -- through 41.2 innings, he's posted a 1.94 ERA and a 62:12 K:BB. His ability to remain healthy remains a question mark, however.

Heaney (1-1) allowed five runs (three earned) on five hits and one walk while striking out 10 to take the loss Thursday against the Brewers.
EDGE Analysis
Heaney had a mixed performance. He struck out double-digit batters for the second time in a start this season, and he backed that with 19 swinging strikes across 89 total pitches. On the other hand, Heaney also served up three home runs, despite entering the game having allowed only one long ball across 31 innings for the campaign. On the season, he owns a 1.77 ERA and 52:11 K:BB across 35.2 frames.

Heaney (arm) is listed as the Dodgers' scheduled starter for Thursday's series finale in Milwaukee.
EDGE Analysis
As anticipated, Heaney won't be forced to miss a turn through the rotation after he exited his most recent start Saturday against the Rockies when he took a line drive off his left arm. He escaped with nothing more than a bruise to his pitching arm, and he's apparently been able to resume throwing without any discomfort. Though injuries have limited Heaney to just seven starts this season, he's been dominant when available, as he's produced a 1.16 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 42:10 K:BB across 31 innings.

Heaney is expected to make his next start after exiting Saturday's game against the Royals with a bruise on his left arm, Fabian Ardaya of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Heaney exited Saturday's start after three innings due to taking a liner off his arm. However, he appears to have avoided a serious injury and remains in line to make his next start -- currently projected to come next week at Milwaukee. Heaney allowed two runs on three hits and struck out five without walking a batter before his early exit.
