Impact of teixiara trade?

Question

impact of towards other AL contenders on this trade?

does this make the angels the clear cut best team in the AL/League

does this finally solidify the angels as world series favorites

Answer 1

I'm a Braves fan, and I'm just gonna say to Angels fans: Enjoy Teixeira. Keep hold of him long term so that neither of the New York teams can have him. I hope this pitcher will be good. I'm sure he is or we wouldn't have traded for him. Plus, I haven't seen Kotchman too much. He better be really good. I heard he's a good fielder, which is definitely good. In Tex, the Angels now have an absolutely amazing all around player. Great glove (only 2 errors all season) and obviously a great, switch-hitting bat with a whole lot of power. I have nothing against the Angels and now they got Tex, so I'm gonna be pulling for you guys in the AL now. The Angels are an awfully frightening team now.

Answer 2

I am still in shock, but....]

....this is the one piece we have been missing for years.

Answer 3

Angels are instant championship contenders

they got the big bat they wanted to protect Vlad Guerrero

Answer 4

WTF?  Angels got Teixiera?  Wow!  They're definitely the team to beat in the AL.  They got the pitching, starting and relief, and now they have the power.  He's a terrific hitter, Chipper Jones type.

ANGELS vs. CUBS in the WS!

FYI -  This is coming from a Dodgers fan.... they need to get rid of Coletti.  He's made terrible deals.

Answer 5

This def makes em more solid. Yea they are the team to beat. However it is a 2 month rental so they need to win now. In my opinion, it wasnt worth casey kotchman for mark teixera for 2 months.

Answer 6

Makes a Great team even better now they actually have someone who can back up Vlad should put them in the world series.
