But he spent enough time comparing Holliday to Mark Teixeira to create a distinct impression what kind of money he has in mind. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Mark_Teixeira/632595 632595 Tue, 10 Nov 2009 21:36:01 EDT Jerry Crasnick 12 days 15 hours 49 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Mark_Teixeira/632595 THE Yankees found $181 million lying around last offseason, and made a late, victorious bid to corral Mark Teixeira, so never say never when it comes to the Yankees and spending.

The team reportedly opened discussions with a six-year, $98 million deal.

Our View: These talks are just preliminary, but that doesn't appear to be nearly enough to lock Holliday up. Scott Boras has said he will use Mark Teixeira's eight-year, $180 million as a benchmark, so the Cards better get that offer increased if they want to keep the slugger. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Mark_Teixeira/620859 620859 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 20:44:01 EDT fanball.com 18 days 16 hours 41 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Mark_Teixeira/620859 The New York Daily News' Sean Brennan reports New York Yankees 1B Mark Teixeira took extra batting practice Tuesday, Nov. 2, in hopes of breaking out of his slump. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Mark_Teixeira/619619 619619 Wed, 04 Nov 2009 9:00:03 EDT kffl.com 19 days 4 hours 25 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Mark_Teixeira/619619 Mark Teixeira took extra batting practice Tuesday with the hope of breaking out of his 2-for-19 World Series slump.

Our View: For the entire playoffs, he's hitting just .172. He has twice as many strikeouts, 16, as RBI, seven. Apparently, $180 million doesn't buy nearly as many clutch hits as it used to. The Yanks have come to within one game of their 27th championship despite his invisible bat, but if the Phillies come back to win the series, it will be hard not to label Tex's woes as one of the main culprits. http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Mark_Teixeira/618287 618287 Tue, 03 Nov 2009 12:04:01 EDT fanball.com 20 days 1 hours 21 minutes http://www.fantasysp.com/player/mlb/Mark_Teixeira/618287 PHILADELPHIA -- Mark Teixeira is in a prolonged slump right now that's starting to become alarming.
