Los Angeles Angels starter Andrew Heaney will take the mound against the Royals Tuesday night. Heaney is coming off one of his better performances of the season, allowing only one run and striking out seven through 6 1/3 innings against the Giants on June 1. Consistency has been a major issue for the talented left-hander, backing up a strong performance with ineffectiveness. He has struck out 62 hitters through 51 innings pitched but is posting a 7.20 ERA in the first inning of games and a 24.20 ERA pitching with runners in scoring position. Heaney will be hard to trust in fantasy formats heading into this start.
Los Angeles Angels starter Andrew Heaney will take the mound Tuesday against the Giants in San Francisco. Heaney has been mediocre, at best, this season despite an impressive 11.06 K/9 rate. It has been a frustrating season thus far for the talented left-handed starter, especially in the first inning of games. Heaney is posting an 8.00 ERA in the first inning of games, including a .350 batting average. That number will have to improve to become a viable fantasy asset in standard formats moving forward. Heaney may have his highest ceiling when pitching in road games this season, sporting a 1.14 WHIP and 4.29 ERA through four road starts.
Los Angeles Angels starter Andrew Heaney will take the mound Tuesday to open up a series against the Rangers at Angel Stadium. Heaney (1-3) is a frustrating talent, posting a 5.31 ERA through his first eight starts. Fantasy teams could look at Heaney's 11.54 K/9 rate and be easily tantalized. But the big left-handed starter simply hasn't put together the rest of his game and Heaney has allowed seven home runs over his last four starts. Fantasy managers in need of strikeouts could use Heaney on a short-term basis but expect other categories to suffer.

Last year, Los Angeles Angels starting pitcherAndrew Heaney avoided a stint on the injured list for the first time since 2015, which is impressive given he has spent a total of 409 days on the IL in the last five years. In 2018, Heaney did make 30 starts and throw 180 innings, so you could also believe he's turned the corner health-wise with two of the last three seasons providing a good accumulation of innings. Performance-wise, Heaney has been a useful fantasy contributor, putting up good strikeout numbers, albeit with a pretty high ERA. Heaney has a 25.6% strikeout rate since 2018, which is 25th-best among all starting pitchers with at least 300 innings thrown in that time. Although Heaney hasn't had a year with a sub-4.00 ERA since 2015, his underlying numbers do indicate there is more than meets the eye. In the last three years, Heaney's 4.42 ERA is significantly higher than his xFIP (3.91) and his SIERA (3.84), so even if he can lower his ERA, Heaney should provide value at his current ADP of around 209. Given his ADP, the injury risk with Heaney is built in and a repeat of his 2018 season (180 innings, 180 K's, 4.15 ERA and 1.20 WHIP ) is achievable. Heaney is still only 29 years old, too, so he shouldn't be considered in decline. In fact, he could be a late bloomer on the brink of having his best season, provided he stays healthy, of course.
