Heaney (4-4) allowed four runs on six hits over six innings in a win over the White Sox on Saturday. He struck out eight and did not issue a walk.
EDGE Analysis
Heaney ran into trouble in the first and in the fifth; he allowed just a single baserunner in his other four frames. The lefty has missed time again this season with elbow and shoulder trouble, and the early results were ugly, but he seems to be healthy and hitting his stride as the season draws near a close. Since returning from the injured list Aug. 10, Heaney has posted a 3.28 ERA and 46:6 K:BB in 35.2 innings. He will look to keep it going next week in a home start against the Rays.

Heaney (3-4) yielded four runs on seven hits and two walks over five innings Sunday, striking out four batters and taking the loss against Boston.
EDGE Analysis
It was Heaney's first start allowing more than three runs since June 30 and his ERA bumped to 4.16. Most of the damage came in the third inning with Xander Bogaerts and J.D. Martinez launching back-to-back homers. The 28-year-old southpaw will face the White Sox in Chicago on Saturday.

Heaney threw six innings in a no-decision against the Rangers on Tuesday, giving up one unearned run on four hits, striking out 10 and walking three as the Angels eventually won 5-2.
EDGE Analysis
He wasn't rewarded with the win, but it was still another stellar outing for the left-hander, who posted his second straight double-digit strikeout effort and fourth of the season. Heaney has been red-hot of late, as he's now given up just four earned runs and posted a lights-out 30:3 K:BB over his last 21 innings. The stretch has brought his ERA down to 3.95 and his WHIP to 1.16 over 70.2 innings ahead of his next start, which will see him take on the Red Sox in a Sunday home matchup.

Heaney will make his next scheduled start Tuesday at home versus the Rangers.
EDGE Analysis
Since his last outing came Tuesday, Heaney would have been on schedule to make his second start of the week in Sunday's game in Houston, but manager Brad Ausmus will instead give Jaime Barria the ball in the series finale. The decision to keep Barria ahead of Heaney in the pitching order is just a matter of maintenance for the latter, who racked up a season-high 108 pitches against this same Rangers squad in Arlington while striking out 14 over eight scoreless frames. Heaney will tentatively line up for a two step next week, with an outing Sept. 1 versus Boston to follow his home start against Texas.

Heaney (3-3) earned the win Tuesday after holding the Rangers to one run on four hits while striking out 14 over eight innings in the first game of a doubleheader.
EDGE Analysis
Making his third start since coming off the injured list, Heaney turned in an outstanding performance against the Rangers. Except for a sixth-inning Willie Calhoun solo homer, the southpaw was in control throughout, throwing 20 of 28 first-pitch strikes leading to 14 strikeouts on 108 pitches. Through 12 appearances, Heaney holds a 4.31 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 78:20 K:BB. The 28-year-old will look to continue his recent form in his next start, on the road in Houston on Sunday.

Heaney will start Game 2 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Rangers, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.
EDGE Analysis
Jaime Barria is slated to start Game 1 of the twin bill, with Heaney getting the ball for Game 2. The southpaw has been solid in a pair of starts since returning from the injured list earlier in the month, posting a 3.38 ERA, 0.75 WHIP and 10:1 K:BB in 10.2 innings.

Heaney (2-3) earned the win Thursday after holding the White Sox to three runs on four hits while striking out six over seven innings.
EDGE Analysis
Making his second start since coming off the injured list, Heaney turned in a solid performance against the White Sox. Aside from giving up a pair of home runs to Jose Abreu, the southpaw showed clear signs of improvement, whiffing six batters while extending from 74 pitches in his last start to 90 pitches this time out. Through 11 appearances this season, Heaney owns a 4.76 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 64:20 K:BB. The 28-year-old will look to continue trending upward in his next start, on the road in Arlington on Tuesday.

Heaney allowed one run on three hits with one walk and four strikeouts across 3.2 innings during a no-decision against the Red Sox on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
The 28-year-old pitched well in his return from the IL (shoulder) Saturday, but he didn't have the stamina -- throwing just 74 pitches -- to last five innings, which meant he didn't get the win. Heaney is still searching for his second victory of the year, as he is 1-3 with a 4.89 ERA, 1.35 WHIP and 58 strikeouts in 49.2 innings this season. He will pitch again Thursday against the White Sox at home.

Heaney (shoulder) was officially activated from the injured list prior to his start Saturday against the Red Sox.
EDGE Analysis
Heaney most recently threw 60 pitches in a simulated game, so he may be slightly limited in his first start since hitting the injured list July 20. He enters the outing with a 5.09 ERA and a 1.37 WHIP with 54 strikeouts across 46 innings this season.
