 The Bull Pen - Hank Blalock/Mark Teixeira news
The word at the Carnival (from Rangers brass) is that Blalock will have to have an incredible spring to win the job now- the team's prepared to let him spend a little time at AAA to fine-tune a few things.
Teixeira should begin his pro career at AA Tulsa, and the blueprint last year was to get him 400-500 minor-league at-bats before promoting him to the majors.
That sounds to me as if both will be in the lineup next spring- most likely, Blalock at third, and Teixeira at first, now that Carlos Pena is an Athletic.

 Joe Siegler's Texas Rangers Forums: Rangers finally sign Mark Teixeira   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
Teixeira is expected to sign a major league contract, and that could have posed one potential problem – the loss of income if there is a work stoppage next year.
Teixeira would get paid, however, if the Rangers guaranteed the contract regardless of the labor situation.
Once the Rangers sign Teixeira, they could put him on the 40-man roster and likely assign him to the club's minor league team in the Arizona Fall League, which runs from Oct. 2-Nov. 15.

 The Bull Pen - 2K5: Mark Teixeira

 Minor League Ball :: Crystal Ball: Mark Teixeira
Teixeira will have a normal development curve, his power production gradually increasing into his early 30s, but with a concurrent gradual decline in batting average most seasons and a fade in overall productivity as his career progresses.
I may be mistaken, but I think Teixeira's contract will be up at about the time (within a year or two) when Helton's will be.
Teixeira is from the Baltimore area and fans here would love to have him at some point.

 AaronGleeman.com
Which is to say that not only is Moore wrong in using putouts as the evidence for a center fielder being great, the use of that wrong stat doesn't even support his point in the season being played right now, let alone in all of baseball history.
Prior to this season, I ranked him as the #2 overall prospect in baseball, behind Mark Teixeira, who is now playing everyday for the Texas Rangers (at the age of 23).
Teixeira is no longer a "prospect" and, even if he was, Mauer may have pushed past him on the basis of his outstanding season thus far.

 FOX Sports: Mark Teixeira
The switch-hitter is still significantly better against lefthanded pitchers, but Teixeira did improve his average from the left side by 25 points in 2004.
He also seemed to better tailor his lefthanded swing for Ameriquest Field, lifting balls into the air to right and taking advantage of the short right-field wall.
An impressive trend: Teixeira's strikeouts went down slightly and his walks jumped significantly in virtually the same number of at-bats as in 2003.
