 TRADE ALERT: Mark Teixeira The Holy One
TRADE ALERT: Mark Teixeira The Holy One
The Anaheim Angels traded first baseman Casey Kotchman (solid contract that doesn’t come due until 2011) and prospect pitcher Stephen Marek (mediocre right-hander) to the Atlanta Braves in return for this powerful switch-hitter. Although the trade will certainly help the Angels’ mediocre offense, how does it affect Tex’s fantasy value? Keep reading to find out…

 THT Live:Is Teixeira really an upgrade for the Angels?
THT Live:Is Teixeira really an upgrade for the Angels?
Marcel thinks so. The rest of the year projection for Teixeira is .287/.379/.521. Casey Kotchman, traded to the Braves for Tex, is at .281/.348/.438. That's over 100 points of OPS. Both are supposed to be good fielders, so we'll call that a wash. But since the Angels have the AL West all but wrapped up, so this is an upgrade for the postseason. Long-term, it's hard to call this a win for the ...
