Andrew Heaney Will Be Back With Rangers In 2024

Texas Rangers left-hander Andrew Heaney exercised his $13 million player option for the 2024 season and will be back in Texas next year. Heaney was a big part of the Rangers' pitching staff this year on their way to their first-ever World Series championship. The 32-year-old southpaw appeared in five games (three starts) in the playoffs and allowed five earned runs on 11 hits while walking four and striking out four in 11 innings pitched. During the regular season (his first in Texas), he went 10-6 with a 4.15 ERA (4.66 FIP) and 1.38 WHIP while walking 60 and striking out 151 in 147 1/3 innings over 34 appearances (28 starts). Heaney should enter his second year with the Rangers as a back-end starter in their rotation.

Andrew Heaney Gets The Nod For Game 4 Against Arizona

Texas Rangers left-hander Andrew Heaney has been named the starter for Game 4 of the World Series against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Tuesday. The Rangers were initially expected to use right-hander Jon Gray as the Game 4 starter, but those plans were scrapped after he threw three shutout innings for the win in Game 3 on Monday night when starter Max Scherzer left after three innings with a back spasm. Heaney allowed a hit in two-thirds of an inning in Game 2 of the series on Saturday. He's made two starts and worked twice out of the bullpen in the playoffs, allowing four earned runs on seven hits while walking two and fanning just one in six innings. The 32-year-old southpaw made one regular-season start against Arizona back on May 3 and picked up a no-decision after allowing six earned runs while walking four and striking out five in 4 2/3 frames.

Andrew Heaney Starting Game 4 Of ALCS

Texas Rangers left-hander Andrew Heaney is starting Game 4 of the American League Championship Series on Thursday against the division-rival Houston Astros. In just his second career postseason appearance in Game 1 of the ALDS in Baltimore against the Orioles, Heaney picked up a no-decision by allowing just an earned run on two hits while walking one and striking out one in 3 2/3 innings of work. He's probably not going to have a long leash in this one as the Rangers look to take a commanding three games to one lead in the best-of-seven series. In four starts against Houston during the regular season, the 32-year-old southpaw allowed six earned runs in 19 2/3 innings (2.75 ERA) while walking 11 and striking out 16.

Rangers Rotation Could Be A Strength In ALCS

Over the 2022-23 offseason, the Rangers concentrated their attention and resources on the rotation. They signed Jacob deGrom, the biggest name on the market, and Nathan Eovaldi, a World Series champion and postseason hero. They re-signed Martin Perez, an 11-year veteran and a 2022 All-Star. They took a chance on the injury-prone Andrew Heaney, who…

Andrew Heaney To Start Game 1 Of ALDS For Rangers

The Texas Rangers will roll with left-hander Andrew Heaney for Game 1 of the American League Division Series on Saturday in Baltimore against the Orioles. Fellow left-hander Jordan Montgomery will be on the hill for Game 2 on Sunday. It was expected that right-hander Dane Dunning would get the nod for Game 1 of the ALDS, but it will instead go to the 32-year-old Heaney against a lefty-heavy top half of Baltimore's lineup. Heaney only started two games in September, with his last outing being a shutout performance in a start against the Mariners on Sept. 30 in which he went 4 1/3 innings while striking out two. Both of his starts against the O's were in the first two months of the year and he was roughed up to the tune of a 7.45 ERA with three walks and five strikeouts in 9 2/3 innings pitched. Heaney will be a risky DFS streamer on Saturday.

Max Scherzer Continues Working Toward A Return

The Rangers have been without Max Scherzer since mid-September, but the three-time Cy Young winner hasn’t given up hope of pitching in the postseason. Indeed, he seems to be progressing well toward that goal. His teammates did their part on Wednesday afternoon, beating the Rays to win the AL Wild Card Series and advance to…

Andrew Heaney Taking The Ball On Saturday

Texas Rangers left-hander Andrew Heaney is getting the nod for Saturday's start against the Seattle Mariners. Heaney has worked out of the bullpen for most of September and he just tossed 17 pitches on Thursday, but the Rangers may need him in the rotation going forward with Jon Gray (forearm) hitting the injured list Friday. The numbers aren't pretty for the southpaw in his recent career against the M's, showing a dodgy 7.04 ERA in his last five starts (30 innings). Fantasy managers would probably be wise to bench Heaney in most cases.

Andrew Heaney Has Scoreless Relief Outing Monday

In the team's 5-1 win over the Los Angeles Angels on Monday night, Texas Rangers left-hander Andrew Heaney threw 1 1/3 scoreless innings in relief, not allowing a single hit and also not walking or striking out a batter. Heaney has shifted to more of a long-relief role for the Rangers in the final month of the regular season, but he may be needed back in the starting rotation before long, depending on the severity of right-hander Jon Gray's wrist injury that he suffered on Monday. The 32-year-old southpaw has made 32 appearances (27 starts) for Texas in 2023, going 10-6 with a 4.31 ERA (4.73 FIP), 1.38 WHIP, 58 walks and 147 strikeouts in 142 innings pitched in his first year with the team.
