Report: Mark Teixeira traded
Published 7/29/2008 by Andrew Vazzano (noreply@blogger.com) at The 'Ropolitans :: NY Mets Baseball Blog
According to Braves Blast, the Atlanta Braves have traded Mark Teixeira for Casey Kotchman, and maybe more. I'm not sure how I feel. I'm glad the power bat of Tex is out of the NL East, but I really like Kotchman and think he is a pretty solid player. Looks like the Braves are planning to play spoilers this season.
