Pirates fans can’t begin to comprehend why top contender signed Andrew Heaney

Less than a week after being designated for assignment by the Pittsburgh Pirates, Andrew Heaney has landed on his feet with a shot at postseason glory.

The veteran left-hander has reportedly agreed to a minor-league contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, per Jon Heyman of the New York Post. Heaney will report to Triple-A Oklahoma City – conveniently, in his hometown – and will be eligible to pitch for the Dodgers in the postseason.

It's a homecoming of sorts for Heaney, who previously pitched for the Dodgers during the 2022 season.
