Andrew Heaney

Andrew Heaney struggled mightily in Saturday's matchup against the Texas Rangers, surrendering seven earned runs on ten hits while striking out three over just four innings.

This performance certainly didn't help his already bloated ERA, which climbed further to 4.28. Given his season-long inconsistency highlighted by a 5-14 record, fantasy managers might view Heaney as a risky play. His decent strikeout rate (8.9 K/9) and solid strikeout-to-walk ratio (3.88) still make him a potential asset in deeper leagues or formats that heavily reward strikeouts, but his vulnerability to heavy hitting, as evidenced by today's game, raises red flags. Moving forward, Heaney's role in fantasy lineups should be considered carefully.

Andrew Heaney delivered a strong performance on Tuesday, allowing no earned runs and just three hits over five innings while striking out eight against the Yankees.

Fantasy Impact

Despite his solid outing, he did not factor into the decision as the Rangers secured a 7-4 victory. This season, Heaney has struggled with consistency, as evidenced by his 4-13 record, but his 3.81 ERA and 1.22 WHIP suggest that he has been somewhat effective. His high strikeout rate (9.1 K/9) continues to make him a valuable asset in fantasy leagues that reward strikeouts, although his win potential is limited by the Rangers' overall performance. Moving forward, fantasy managers should consider Heaney a viable option in strikeout-heavy formats, but temper expectations for wins.

Andrew Heaney delivered a stellar performance in Wednesday's tight 1-0 victory over the Pirates.

Fantasy Impact

He threw 90 pitches across five scoreless innings, allowing just five hits and one walk while striking out eight. Despite his strong outing, Heaney did not factor into the decision, leaving his season record at 4-13. His season-long numbers, including a 4.04 ERA and a 1.24 WHIP, suggest variability, but performances like this highlight his potential value in fantasy leagues, especially in strikeouts where he maintains an 9.1 K/9 rate. Consistency remains an issue, as reflected by his high loss count and ERA, but his ability to miss bats could make him a valuable asset in deeper leagues or as a streaming option depending on the matchup.
