Injuries have not been kind to the Halos this season. With injuries to the rotation as well as the field the Angels are struggling to keep pace in the AL West.

Heaney opted to try some stem-cell treatment after sustaining the injury. After weeks of treatment he came to the conclusion that the only way to get healthy was to undergo Tommy John that will most likely keep him out until 2018.
