        Braves always seem to know when to let pitchers go. It isn't very often they trade someone and they blossom elsewhere. I'm sure there are a few exceptions, but they generally do a good job of evaluating talent.

          Better trade for the Angels. Walden is not that good. Hansen has more upside and promise.

              Angels Trade Jordan Walden To Braves For Tommy Hanson



              The Angels are trying their best to add starting pitcher other ways than just free agency. They might not be able to re-sign Zach Grienke. Walden struggled for the Angels last season and with the addition of Ryan Madson, the Angels can afford to lose a reliever in order to help out their rotation.


              From NBC sports:
              Tommy Hanson once looked likely to be atop Atlanta’s rotation for a long time, but after the right-hander struggled for the past season-and-a-half the Braves have traded him to the Angels.
              Alden Gonzalez of MLB.com MLB.com reports that the Braves will get 25-year-old reliever Jordan Walden in return, which makes it a swap of two young pitchers whose stock has declined dramatically in the last year.
