JASON HEYWARD RUMORS
Player Profile #86: Jason Heyward | OF | ATL
In 2010, Jason Heyward turned heads with a very solid season as a 20-year-old rookie. His PSR was even in the top 100, so many thought we were looking at the next big thing in fantasy baseball. Well, a combination of injuries and regression hurt his 2011 value, and he ended up ranking a very poor 376th. The good news is that Heyward is still only 21 years old and has plenty of time...

Ask Alex: Can Jason Heyward return to his rookie form?
We all have questions about the 2012 season and Alex Remington luckily has some answers. The Stew's resident stats guru will address some of the big ones as the year progresses.
The Situation: Jason Heyward faced extraordinarily lofty expectations when he was named the Atlanta Braves' starting right fielder on Opening Day in 2010. But he met all of them, making the All-Star...

SLUGGERS IN THE MAKING
10 young hitters to watch in 2012
On Thursday, I wrote about ten young pitchers to keep an eye on in 2012. The same caveats apply for this list as for the pitchers list: all hitters must be under 25, and none of them can have been traded this offseason. Let's take a look.
1. Jason Heyward, Braves. In his rookie season of 2010, Heyward posted an .849 OPS and 5.1 fWAR, finishing as the runner up in the NL...

Jason Heyward Player Projection No. 98
Key Stats: Jason Heyward will break Hank Aaron’s record. In one season. Batting right-handed. The talk went something like that two years ago when Heyward, Stephen Strasburg, and Mike Stanton were all making a case to make their teams out of spring training. Only Heyward ultimately made it, and if the Braves had to do it over again perhaps they might have waited. The J-Hey Kid...

Jason Heyward's Lost Season
The Atlanta Braves do not seem to be taking the kind of heat for their September collapse that the Boston Red Sox are taking, but it was just as bad. For fans, it was head scratching because they should have been a juggernaut right through the season. But a sub-par season from Dan Uggla didn't help after the high expectations there. What few realize is that Jason Heyward was...

Braves Will Make Mistake if they Send Heyward to the Minors.
I’ll be completely honest. The trade rumors that are swirling around are making my head hurt. It seems like every day there is a new name or new angle on an old rumor about what the Atlanta Braves may or may not trade away to acquire a hitter, reliever or bat-boy, or whatever you can wrap your mind around. One thing that came out a few days ago that baffled me was something...

Heyward’s Struggles and Did You Know
I had hoped to write this article about the resurgence of Jason Heyward and how his return to the lineup has improved a languid Braves offense. Unfortunately, Heyward has only shown glimpses of his offensive prowess, with no consistency whatsoever.
Is a lingering injury still causing the lack of production? Does he just need time to readjust? I have no idea what is causing his lack...

As I watched Freddie Freeman jump start the Atlanta Braves’ offense last night. I marveled at how he has been hitting over the past three weeks or so. He has rebounded nicely...

The Pot and the Kettle: Chipper Calls Out Heyward
The blogosphere has been buzzing over the past 24-36 hours over some comments that Atlanta Braves’ Third Baseman, Chipper Jones, made about right fielder, Jason Heyward. Much has been made about these comments. I think people are reading into the comments way too much. In no way, do I feel that Chipper was “calling out” Heyward. Chipper was being truthful...
