I just remember watching the Royals in the A.L. Wild Card Game running wild against the A's. I remember thinking to myself that the Braves need to get some speed. Seems like they went a long way in doing so.

Chopping With The Braves And Rolling With The Tide

If we're selling off players for the future might as well go full on fire sale mode and trade Gattis as well. There is no difference between winning 60 and winning 70 in my mind. Either way you aren't relevant.
To paraphrase noted philosopher Ricky Bobby, if you ain't first or the wild card, you're last.

Trading two players with 1 year left on your deal doesn't equate to gutting your team especially when you have strong indications that they weren't going to resign (Heyward). What I find facinating is that when Beane makes moves like this he is lauded for his brilliance. It just seems a large portion of the fanbase dislikes Hart and JS. Thats fine and all I just don't think people are being consistent.
