Looking At Heyward
Heyward was picked in the 1st round of the 2007 MLB Draft.
He spent the first five years of his career with the Braves.
As a rookie, Heyward made the All-Star Game.
The Braves wrote (via X) on November 17, 2014: “The #Braves have acquired RHP Shelby Miller and RHP Tyrell Jenkins from the Cardinals in exchange for OF Jason Heyward and RHP Jordan Walden”
Following Atlanta, Heyward spent one season with the St. Louis Cardinals before a seven-year stint on the Chicago Cubs.
He helped the Cubs win the 2016 World Series title.
Following Chicago, Heyward finished his career after stints with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Houston Astros and San Diego Padres.
The five-time Gold Glove Award winner announced his retirement earlier this year.
He wrote (via Instagram) on March 27: “After 31 years, 16 Major League Seasons. I’d like to take one last time to show LOVE to the game of BASEBALL as a player. You’ve taken me around the world. Given me something to dream of and work towards as a kid and a professional. You’ve shown me the value of sacrifice, support, family, friends, competition, winning, respect, growth and many other lessons along the way. To my wife V, and our kids. Thank you for stepping in and finishing this journey with me as TaTa! Thank you to my parents Eugene & Laura, and my brother Jacob for your love and support. Thank you to everyone that has given me an opportunity to play this game I’ve loved my whole life. Every TEAMMATE, COACH, STAFF, TRAINER, MEDIA, PERSONNEL, and many more. HUGE THANK YOU, to everyone that’s been a FAN of what I’ve given to the game of baseball on and off the field. Looking forward to everything ahead. Much Love, J-Hey 🤟🏾”
