Andrew Heaney is retiring after 12 Major League seasons, as the 34-year-old southpaw announced via his social media feeds. Heaney finishes his career with a 4.57 ERA over 1136 2/3 innings as a starter and occasional reliever with six different MLB teams, including seven seasons with the Angels.
“I will miss the game greatly, but all of my experiences and the lasting relationships have made me a better person,” Heaney wrote. “The routine of showing up to the yard every day and working to improve each time out has been a driving force for me…I am now ready to return my focus and energy to being a husband, father, family man, and active member of my community. I’m retiring from baseball, but I hope to give back more than I received. Thank you to all of you for the love and support you have given me. Y’all know who you are.”
More to come…
