The Angels announced left-hander Andrew Heaney will undergo Tommy John surgery Friday in Los Angeles. Heaney received the stem-cell therapy at the same clinic where Dr. ElAttrache works. After his first start of the season on April 5, Heaney told the team he felt tightness in his forearm. The decision was made after his second checkup, Monday, on the progress of a stem-cell injection he received eight weeks ago. The Angels obtained the 25-year-old Heaney from the Dodgers in December 2014 for second baseman Howie Kendrick.
