Honeycutt pitched in Major League Baseball (MLB) for six different teams over 21 years, from 1977 to 1997.

He pitched in 30 post-season games, including 20 League Championship Series games and seven World Series games, and never lost a game, going 3–0.

After 1 1⁄2 seasons in their minor league system, the Pirates traded him to the Seattle Mariners in August 1977 to complete an earlier trade for Dave Pagan.

Honeycutt made his major league debut on August 24, 1977, against the Toronto Blue Jays.

He pitched two scoreless innings of relief, struck out three, and allowed two hits.

His first start was against the New York Yankees on August 31.

1978

Honeycutt earned his first career win in his first start the following year, beating the Minnesota Twins on April 7, 1978.

In the game, he allowed three earned runs and four walks in seven innings as the Mariners won 6–3.

In 26 games (24 starts) during the 1978 season, he posted a 5–11 record and a 4.89 ERA.

1980

Honeycutt matured into a control pitcher, being selected to the 1980 All-Star Game.

While he was pitching on September 30, 1980, he was caught using a thumbtack to illegally cut the ball.

He was ejected and suspended for 10 games.

On December 18, 1980, Honeycutt was traded along with Willie Horton, Leon Roberts, Mario Mendoza and Larry Cox from the Mariners to the Texas Rangers for Richie Zisk, Jerry Don Gleaton, Rick Auerbach, Ken Clay, Brian Allard and minor-league right-handed pitcher Steve Finch in an 11-player blockbuster deal.

In 1983, Honeycutt represented the Rangers in the All-Star Game.

On August 19, 1983, Honeycutt was traded from the Rangers to the Los Angeles Dodgers for Dave Stewart and Ricky Wright.

1988

Honeycutt gave up no runs in the 1988 and 1990 post-seasons, and was a member of the Oakland Athletics' 1989 World Series championship team.

Converted from a starting pitcher to relief in 1988 by Oakland, he became a set-up man to Dennis Eckersley, posting a series of sub-3.7 ERAs from 1988 through 1993.

Following his playing career, Honeycutt spent a year coaching his kids' teams before joining the Dodgers as their minor league pitching coordinator.

2006

He was also the pitching coach for the Los Angeles Dodgers from 2006 through 2019.

Honeycutt was born in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and graduated from Lakeview Fort Oglethorpe High School in Fort Oglethorpe, Georgia.

He also launched a sporting goods and apparel business in Chattanooga, Tennessee.

2007

Honeycutt and Mariano Duncan were the only holdovers from Grady Little's 2007 coaching staff to return on new Dodgers' manager Joe Torre's 2008 coaching staff.

2010

Honeycutt also remained as pitching coach when Don Mattingly replaced Torre after the 2010 season.

2015

When Mattingly left the team after the 2015 season, Honeycutt was the only coach to remain on the staff for new manager Dave Roberts.

2019

Due to a back injury, Honeycutt stepped down as pitching coach for the Dodgers after the 2019 season to take a new role as a special assistant to the team.

Honeycutt's 14 years as the Dodgers pitching coach (under four different managers) tied Ron Perranoski for the longest tenure in that role in the organization's history.
