Intriguing lefty with a comeback story, but still proving he’s fully back
Heney is a Richmond LHP whose biggest differentiator is resilience: after thoracic outlet syndrome and a serious 2024 shutdown, he returned for six 2025 appearances and showed flashes in short relief, though the results were uneven with a 10.38 ERA in 4.1 innings. His path suggests a pitcher with real makeup and perseverance, and his earlier high-school profile points to a repeatable delivery, strike-throwing ability, and a multi-pitch mix that can play if his health and command stabilize. He’s a worthwhile fit for teams valuing upside, toughness, and development patience.
