@jcrasnick Pitcher Jaye Chapman is one of the players going from #Braves to #Cubs in Maholm-Johnson deal, source says.

#Cubs could have an even bigger deal coming - with a red-hot division rival.

Goldstein calls Chapman a throw in, but a Braves reporter is saying it is two relievers.

And he hash-tagged #Reds at the end of it. Interesting.

One of the 2 relievers going to #Cubs, lJaye Chapman was in big-league camp with #Braves and looked overmatched.

Yeah if the other arm is a reliever I will be pretty disappointed in the haul.

Vizcaino had Tommy John in spring training, but last season was one of #Braves' big four untouchable pitching prospects. #Cubs

He has tons of stuff, but can't stay healthy. Could be a huge add to the system though.

Dude this is a great haul. Take the risk on a guy with the upside of a 2 starter. It might not pan out, but this has a chance to be a fucking homerun.

Now this trade feels sooooo much better.
