Fantasy Impact:
This seems to be a multi-faceted move, but for Heston, he's likely going down to Triple-A to get stretched out to take the disastrous Jake Peavy's spot in the rotation. Last season, he was wildly inconsistent, posting a complete game shutout and a one-hitter en route to a 3.95 ERA. His upside is definitely worth an add in deeper leagues when it looks as though he is going to make his way back to the majors.
