Reliever Codi Heuer hasn’t pitched in the majors since the 2021 season because of Tommy John surgery on his right elbow.

Codi Heuer’s road back from Tommy John surgery continued with another rehab appearance for Triple-A Iowa on Saturday.

Cubs manager David Ross said he threw “really well.” In 1u2153 innings, Heuer struck out two and allowed no hits or runs against the Nashville Sounds.

“Getting to the back end of his rehab,” Ross said before the Cubs’ 8-5 loss Sunday to the Reds. “I think he still feels like he’s just a tick off and wants to lock in his mechanics and strike-throwing.
