Mark Teixeira (1B), TEX

yeah and hes acting like a douche bag too. I think it got to his head

Did anyone who had him last year re-up for another season of agony (excluding keepers)? I had him for a whole season last year in one league and traded for him around the all-star break in another. Yeah, he rewarded me nicely at the end, but what a hassle!

oh I didnt explain= well basically I saw him walking down the street in seattle last weekend and I asked him to sign something, and he didnt say a word he just grumbled a few things and kept walking strait. hell I woulda been satisfied if he had just said "sorry kid im busy right now" but no

Mark Teixeira is a 2nd half guy. Let some1 else draft him and then you buy low in May. This guy hit something like 24 dingers after the All-Star break, the only player with more was Big Papi.

I knew that when I traded for him a few weeks ago, but I wasn't quite prepared for the brutally bad performance he's given me so far. He's untradeable at the moments because all you would get are lowball offers, so I'll just have to ride it out and hope he starts resembling a major league player soon.

few weeks ago? you wait until around May or until his owner starts panicking

I drafted this guy with my first pick last year...this year I stayed the hell away from him.
