Lil Bit Special Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 http://www.latimes.com/sports/baseball/mlb/angels/la-sp-baseball10-2008dec10,0,6382388.story?track=rss The Boston Red Sox have emerged as front-runners, and the Washington Nationals, who appear willing to offer eight years and $160 million, could make the most lucrative bid. The Baltimore Orioles are in hot pursuit, the Yankees are lurking, and the Angels are growing more concerned that Teixeira might be slipping away, primarily because they'd like to sign him for six or seven years, not the eight or nine it might take. "At the appropriate time, we will make an offer," Reagins said. "We're prepared to be responsible and reasonable." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anskyruben Posted December 10, 2008 Share Posted December 10, 2008 the Yankees should throw up a big number and end this pursuit too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lil Bit Special Posted December 10, 2008 Author Share Posted December 10, 2008 http://voices.washingtonpost.com/nationalsjournal/2008/12/teixeira_the_lay_of_the_land.html *Yankees: Based on what Yankees officials have been saying, I believe the Sabathia signing essentially takes them out of the bidding for Teixeira. You can never say never, because they're the Yankees and they could get motivated if Teixeira looks like he's going to Boston, but they have always looked at Teixeira as more of a fallback in case they struck out on Sabathia.
