How long did he put off the tjs and would he have been back sometime in 2017 had he not?

I think he’s been putting it off since late April or early may, if I remember correctly. But even then he’s probably only got 2 or 3 starts tops at the end of 2017, so we’d probably just rest him to 2018 anyway

The Angels already told him he wasn’t going to pitch until 2018 if he needed surgery. He was postponing surgery hoping it’d get better.

At the 15th month mark which is usually standard time table that would put at maybe sept with no setbacks so it’d be a wasted season regardless.

They always say “we won’t start you until the following year.” But if it’s 2017, and the Angels are bound for the playoffs but needs pitching, you better believe Heaney is getting thrown back in there (if ready).

The chances if the Angels having to worry about the playoff this year or next are slim to none so I would not worry about it

Heard awhile back that the reason the Dodgers flipped him so quickly for Howie Kendrick was injury scares. Makes sense now.

It was essentially a three=way deal. Heaney was technically a Dodger for only a couple of hours.

This trade is looking decent for the Dodgers. Dee Gordon suspended and Heaney getting TJ’s.

I’m sure they knew that would happen…
mkeving
Not saying they knew, just that it is looking good for them.
Cam
Retrospectively, you’re spot on.

Heaney could win the Cy Young and he would still be best remembered for that tweet he posted after the Dodgers traded him.

Growth hormone? Is this some allowable version of HGG?
If someone needs TJ surgery, why not use a prohibited substance to help them heal since they will miss more than a full season anyway?
Cam
Hard to draw the line though. What about guys who may miss a few months? Or two weeks? They’ll be like, “Hey, he got help. where’s mine?”

How lucky for him that he got the Fantex deal
