Hearn allowed one run on five hits and struck out two over 2.2 innings in Saturday's spring training start against Colorado.
EDGE Analysis
Hearn dealt with baserunners in all three innings but was touched for just the one run in the first frame when he allowed three base hits. He got out of the second with the help of a pickoff, and reliever Daniel Robert prevented Ryan McMahon from scoring in the third inning after Hearn was removed following a ground-rule double and 49 pitches. The left-hander, who is expected to be part of the 2022 rotation, will get one more Cactus League start. Depending on where he lands in the rotation, Hearn could add another 20-to-30 pitches before making his first start of the regular season. His numbers in 2021 were unexciting, but Hearn could be of use in AL-only formats.
