The Yankees signing Mark Teixeira has caused many reactions,
The Yankees signing Mark Teixeira has caused many reactions, but the biggest may be that Mark Attanasio, the owner of the Brewers, thinks that baseball may need a salary cap, according to Bloomberg.com.The Yankees have spent $423.5 million on three players in the last three weeks, which is more than the other four teams in the AL East spent on their entire rosters for the 2008 season. No one can blame the Yankees for taking advantage of the slow free agent market, but a salary cap would make the league much more competitive from top to bottom if one could be implemented.
Chico Harlan, of The Washington Post, reports Washington Nationals
Chico Harlan, of The Washington Post, reports Washington Nationals general manager Jim Bowden is happy the team tried to sign New York Yankees 1B Mark Teixeira but disappointed that he got away. "Basically, we're disappointed; we wanted to sign Mark," Bowden said. "But I think throughout the process we all learned that the Lerner family will step up at the highest level with the best teams in baseball, which they demonstrated throughout the negotiations. At the end our offer was competitive with the best teams in baseball."
The Red Sox have been outbid for free agent first baseman Mark
The Red Sox have been outbid for free agent first baseman Mark Teixeira and "are not going to be a factor" in acquiring him, owner John Henry said in an e-mail on Thursday night. Boston Red Sox officials were in Texas on Thursday for talks with agent Scott Boras in an attempt to reach an agreement. "We met with Mr. Teixeira and were very much impressed with him,'' Henry said. ``After hearing about his other offers, however, it seems clear that we are not going to be a factor.'' Washington, Baltimore and the New York Yankees were the other teams interested in Teixeira.
The Angels have pulled their eight-year offer to Teixeira and
The Angels have pulled their eight-year offer to Teixeira and will no longer go after the first baseman. Team spokesman Tim Mead confirmed Sunday the Angels have withdrawn their offer and are "out of the Mark Teixeira derby." Los Angeles made its offer, reportedly worth about $160 million, during the winter meetings in Las Vegas earlier this month. The Red Sox said last week that they "are not going to be a factor" in signing the 28-year-old Maryland native. Washington and Baltimore have expressed interest in Teixeira. The Angels obtained Teixeira from Atlanta in late July. Playing in a combined 157 games with both clubs, Teixeira had 33 homers and 121 RBIs and hit a career-best .308.

As if landing the market's top two pitchers -- CC Sabathia and
As if landing the market's top two pitchers -- CC Sabathia and A.J. Burnett -- weren't already enough, the Yankees went one step further in adding the market's top bat. Teixeira, who split the last two seasons with three teams, couldn't have asked for a better place to find long-term security. After all, he'll protect Alex Rodriguez in one of the best -- if not THE best -- environments for hitters. With all the offensive weapons surrounding him in the Bronx, it wouldn't be shocking if Teixeira delivered a performance similar to '05, when he posted a .301 average, 43 long balls and 144 RBIs. The sky is indeed the limit in pinstripes, enough to consider drafting Teixeira late in the first round. With Teixeira at first base, the Yankees will have to move Nick Swisher to the outfield. Barring another deal, one possible destination is center field, where the light-hitting Brett Gardner and Melky Cabrera stand in his way. Xavier Nady is penciled in as the right fielder, with Johnny Damon in left and Hideki Matsui as the designated hitter.

Updating a previous story, the Mark Teixeira to Boston Red
Updating a previous story, the Mark Teixeira to Boston Red Sox deal that seemed almost wrapped up mere hours ago now may be off, according to The Boston Globe. Here is an excerpt from Red Sox owner John Henry's recently sent email. "We met with Mr. Teixeira and were very much impressed with him. After hearing about his other offers, however, it seems clear that we are not going to be a factor."All we need now is for someone to announce that they are sleeping with someone else's wife and we would have an episode of As the World Turns. Is this a negotiating ploy by the Sox or have they grown tired of Scott Boras' exorbitant demands? Only time will tell.

This would represent the longest and richest offer under the
This would represent the longest and richest offer under the regime of GM Theo Epstein. If the Red Sox are successful in landing Teixeira, it will create a somewhat sticky situation. The Red Sox have Kevin Youkilis at first base and Mike Lowell at third. To open a spot for Teixeira, the Red Sox might have to trade Lowell and move Youkilis across the diamond. However, Lowell, coming off right hip surgery, is likely to have to prove his health in Spring Training if he is to be dealt. Last winter the Red Sox re-signed Lowell, the Most Valuable Player of the 2007 World Series, to a three-year, $37.5 million contract. The Red Sox control Youkilis contractually for the next two years, so it's highly doubtful he would be moved.
