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

From reading this thread, it sounds like it has as much to do with the fact that Heyward is a fan favorite over how each of the players might help their respective new teams.

Miller was a different pitcher after messing with and putting more faith in his sinker. Where I had almost given up on him earlier, after he started throwing the sinker, I was actually looking forward to him in the rotation next year.

Jenkins has top of the line stuff, supposedly has had a solid fall. LINK He was definitely one of the young arms I've been keeping an eye on as some of the other young arms got moved up. He's had a tough go of it with injuries, but if he can stay healthy, he will be a legit prospect.
