John Hart made his first big move as the new manager of the Atlanta Braves on Monday, trading two-time Gold Glove winner Jason Heyward and pitcher Jordan Walden to the St. Louis Cardinals.
The Braves picked up pitchers Shelby Miller and Tyrell Jenkins for Walden and the 25-year-old Heyward, who hit .271 with 11 homers and 58 RBI in 149 games last season.
A five-year veteran, Heyward won Gold Glove awards in 2012 and 2014. He has a .262 career batting mark with 84 home runs and 292 RBI to go along with 63 stolen bases.
