I mean though Hayward was one of my favorite Braves its not like he ever really lived up to expectations. I kept drafting him in fantasy only to be disappointed.

Nope, at least not enough to make this trade palatable.

I don't know what to feel. Sad to see him go. Wish we would have seen what he could do with a competent hitting coach that would tell him to stand closer to the plate. At the same time, his stellar defense just wasn't enough to cover his inconsistencies at the plate. It's a sad day for the Braves and most Braves fans. Good luck J-Hey.

I mean the absolutely only silver lining is JHey wasn't going to stay so at least we got something in return.

But man I was so hoping we'd unload the Uptons and then be able to sign him.

Sucks bad. Be curious to see how much the Cards will throw at him or if he'll test free agency no matter what.

Braves fans..this is not a tanking move.

If tanking, wouldn't it be smarter to let Heyward walk after next year and get the first round pick compensation?

am excited for Jenkins

Some braves fans here need to realize they were always going to clean house and rebuild for a few years from now

we are gonna have struggles the next two years, deal with it

Haven't read the thread yet but why on earth did the Braves do this?

I remember when he came up as a super prospect and was the future GOAT.

wonder if the Braves are throwing away a few years so they can be good in time for the new stadium

Yeah, I've accepted we will be mediocre the next couple years...as long as we don't trade Kimbrel or Simmons, I'll be okay with any move

even if true, I still think they could have gotten more for Heyward than what we did here

Not sure how to feel about this trade as a cards fan. Not sure why Braves fans think they got fricked in this trade.

if we were losing heyward regardless

4 years of Shelby Miller > 1 year of Heyward

...but I would have rather locked Heyward up
