Andrew Heaney News
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 already traded for Jake Odorizzi and signed Jacob deGrom to a five-year deal. Injuries limited Heaney to just 16 outings (14 starts) in 2022 for the Dodgers, but he had a strong 3.10 ERA (3.75 FIP), a 1.09 WHIP and 110 strikeouts in 72 2/3 innings when he was on the mound.
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 this year to go along with 78 strikeouts and 13 walks.
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.

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 reduced his changeup usage to just 5.1%, though its 15.9 SwStr%, 38.9% chase rate, and 42.9 Zone% weren't bad at all for a show-me pitch. Texas appears primed for a return to relevancy in 2023, so Heaney should have a solid supporting cast including pitching coach Mike Maddux to help him maintain the gains he made in LA. He's currently a forgotten man in fantasy with an ADP of 231.67, making him a tremendous value even if he falls short of a full workload again.
