Eligibility
Mark Teixiera went 0-for-1 after replacing Billy Butler in the Yankees' 6-5 loss to the Red Sox. Teixiera is 1-for-11 with two runs scored over the last seven days. He has a .627 OPS this season.
Fantasy Impact
Billy Butler will make Teixeira even less valuable in his last season, as Butler was signed to face the bevy of left-handed pitchers that the Yankees will face at the end of the 2016 season. Teixeira is hitting .211 with three doubles, three home runs, four runs scored, and four RBI in September.
Mark Teixeira went 1-for-4 with one RBI in a 5-0 win over the Mariners.
Fantasy Impact
Mark Teixeira on the season is hitting .197 with 10 homers and 29 RBI. Teixeira has had an incredibly disappointing season, and his performance in recent games hasn't been an exception. Over his last seven games, Teixeira has gone 2-for-13, bringing his batting average down to just .197 for the season.
Mark Teixeira expected to announce his retirement later today, at 36, effective at the end of the season.
Fantasy Impact
Mark Teixeira played some of his best years in Texas but also had a great run with New York. Teixeira has loads of awards including three all-star games, five gold gloves, and three silver slugger awards. Tex ends his career with 404 home runs. 1,281 RBI, .261 batting average, and a .361 OBP. Mark will be a borderline hall of Famer. Congrats on a great career!
Teixeira is out of the starting lineup for the Yankees series finale against the Mets on Thursday. Rob Refsynder will draw the start at first base batting eighth.
Fantasy Impact
Teixeira is batting just .182 against righties this season and will get the day off against righty Bartolo Colon. The Yankees will face another righty, Josh Tomlin, on Friday when they open a weekend series at home against the Indians.
Mark Teixeira hit a three-run blast for his 10th homer of the season on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
He finished the night 1-for-1 with two walks and a hit-by-pitch. He scored three times. His .198/.287/.340 line over 76 games is not pretty, but should improve somewhat over the remainder of the season.
