KC gets:

P Jesse Chavez (a Brewerfan favorite)

P Tim Collins (acquired in Yunel Escobar trade)

OF Gregor Blanco

 

ATL gets:

OF Rick Ankiel

P Kyle Farnsworth

 

I get the feeling Ankiel isn't that power bat in the outfield the Braves were looking for, but I guess it's something for them, and they really didn't give up anything.

So the Braves got Jeff Francour back

farnsworth is a decent arm in the pen. and since they were trading with the royals, they didn't have to give anything good up.
