The Braves have Kotchman for 3 years, and Stephen Marek will probably be in our bullpen at some point next year. We saved some money and got a better than average 1st basemen so we can be more concerned about getting 2 OF and starting pitchers for next year.

The Angels get 2-3 months of Teix, and get to deal with Boras. I wouldn't say I'm thrilled that Teix is gone, but I think it was the right move. You have to compare what the Braves got to what we could have gotten with two first round draft picks really. The Braves needs are a little more immediate than that.
