Say Bye, Bye!
It’s official. The biggest player in the baseball free agency game is already gone. According to both SI.com article hyah and the four-letter-word version hyah
The Atlanta Braves trade Mark Teixeira ((Pictured, thanks Getty Images)) to the “Fill in the blank Angels” for Casey Kotchman ((pictured, thanks LA Times/Alex Gallardo)) and a minor league pitcher named Steven Marek, who until this afternoon was pitching for the Angels AA-affiliate in Arkansas.
We know why the Braves made the trade, what we don’t understand is why they got so little for “Tex”. Kotchman is a nice ballplayer, but who is Marek?
Pity the poor Braves who have had a huge run of injuries this season, they have totally underachieved, but it is due in part to the lack of healthy bodies to play. Maybe this will be their clue that it is time to rebuild.
