Andrew Heaney agreed to a deal with the Dodgers. He had recently been released by the Pirates. Heaney signed in time to be eligible for the playoffs, which indicates the signing occurred late the previous night. He will initially report to Triple-A Oklahoma City, which suggests a minor-league agreement. Earlier reporting indicated Heaney would sign with a National League club. The timing preserves the possibility of adding Heaney to a postseason roster. The Dodgers gain left-handed pitching depth within their organization. Further details and confirmation are expected as the club finalizes roster decisions.
The Dodgers and left-hander Andrew Heaney have agreed to a deal, reports Jon Heyman of The New York Post. The southpaw had recently been released by the Pirates. Heyman notes that Heaney signed in time to be eligible for the playoffs, so the deal must have been signed late last night.
Heyman also says Heaney will initially report to Triple-A Oklahoma City, which suggests this is a minor league deal. Chris Cotillo of MassLive had previously reported that Heaney would be signing with a National League team. More to come.
