Texixeria To Atlanta?

[NJFINSFAN1]

One of many trade rumors making the rounds at the All-Star Game had the Braves among a handful of teams still interested in Rangers first baseman Mark Teixeira. Two potential sticking points: The Rangers would probably accept nothing less than top Braves prospect Jarrod Saltalamacchia and another young player, and Teixeira is represented by agent Scott Boras and is expected to ask for a long-term contract worth perhaps $20 million per season.

With Jones' impending FA I sincerely doubt ATL is committing the kind of long term dollars it would take to keep Tex. They'd be scary if they were though.
