Teixeira signs, avoids arbitration


According to AP's Paul Newberry, Mark Teixeira signed a 1-year $12.5M deal with the Atlanta Braves, avoiding arbitration.


Though Teixeira signed a 1-year deal, the tougher negotiation starts after the 2008 season when he becomes a free agent. His agent being Scott Boras, it's not going to be easy for Atlanta to retain him long term.
