Codi Heuer Out For 2022 After Tommy John Surgery
Chicago Cubs relief pitcher Codi Heuer (elbow) will miss all of the 2022 season after having successful Tommy John surgery on Tuesday, according to a source familiar with the situation. The 25-year-old was part of the trade that sent closer Craig Kimbrel to the Chicago White Sox last year. Heuer is a hard-throwing, high-leverage reliever who posted a 3.14 ERA in 28 2/3 innings for the Cubs in 2021. The right-hander had a 5.12 ERA, 1.42 WHIP, 39 strikeouts and 10 walks in 38 2/3 relief innings for the White Sox before he was traded at midseason. Heuer's injury is a big loss for the Cubs, as they were likely planning to use him as a late-inning setup man to closer Rowan Wick. Manuel Rodriguez and Brad Wieck could get more opportunities in the eighth inning now.
