On the injured list for the second time this season with shoulder inflammation, Heaney is expected to pitch three innings for Class-A Rancho Cucamonga on Saturday.
ST. LOUIS — Andrew Heaney is ready for another rehab assignment.
Heaney is expected to go three innings in the rehab start. No decision has been made yet on whether he will make multiple starts this time around, according to Dodgers manager Dave Roberts. “For me, my focus has just been the current day – what my plan is for that day, what I need to accomplish to get healthy, stay healthy, be better,” Heaney said Tuesday. “It’s been super-frustrating so I’m just trying to bury myself in working and taking care of what I need to do. The rest will take care of itself. I don’t want to try and steer the situation. I’m at the point now where if I do the work and do the things I need to do the rest will happen.
“To err on the side of caution with Andrew, it’s the volume as far as the number of pitches that we’ve got to be mindful of,” Roberts said. “To see him go beyond the 75-pitch mark, I just don’t see it as realistic. I think we’ve got to do whatever we can to keep him healthy because if he’s on our roster and pitching, he can be very helpful.”
