#Braves have traded Evan Gattis to the #Astros for trio of prospects, I'm told by source.

Holy. Two top 10 pieces? If this happens, our system is absolutely loaded and top 10 automatically. I love Gattis, but this would be a smart move.

I wonder if a team would require BJ to take a physical if he was part of a trade. He blows when healthy to the point where you wish he would be injured significantly enough that they might get insurance to pay some of his salary.
The Astros #4 prospect is Vince Velazquez who is routinely injured so I am betting on him being Hart's object of affection. With Kubitza being traded I have to think a 3b prospect is coming back to us. I like Colin Moran and I was big in Rio Ruin back when he was drafted. Both would be good additions. In fact I hope we get both. Chris Johnson started with Houston and had some decent years there so maybe they will be more inclined to take him back than other teams.

They originally said a 3rd prospect too. Wonder who it is. But Foltynewicz and Ruiz are a great start.

Talking Chop on Twitter called it a "HAUL".
BA has Folt and Ruiz in the top 10.
