Teixeira Goes to Braves in exchange for Saltalamacchia and 3 others!

[AJ25]

Atlanta bolstered its lineup in a big way on Monday, trading for Texas first baseman Mark Teixeira, along with reliever Ron Mahay. Heading to the Rangers are Jarrod Saltalamacchia, prospects Elvis Andrus and Neftali Feliz and a player to be named later. 

Probably the best thing to happen to Teixeria in his career. I know the rangers are a hometown team (ish), but they weren't going anywhere being 16 games out!!

This could be the catcher they have been looking for, hopefully.

Good thing they got rid of Pudge when they did, he was all washed up!  :

yeah tha kid is great, but the braves didn't have a use for him because of the great catcher they have in mccann

This was a good trade for both mark and the rangers. now mark has a chance to play on a winning ball club and the rangers have a very good catcher!!!
