Tex-Mess comes to an end.

Out of nowhere the New York Yankees swooped in to sign prized free agent Mark Teixeira tuesday afternoon. The deal sent shockwaves through the AL East and the rest of the baseball community as the Yanks not only showed up two division rivals in getting Tex, but also for the first time in MLB history signed their second 100 million + dollar contract in the same season.

Tex will play first base and will add that extra umph the Yankees had missing last year. With a new line up, and a new starting rotation with C.C Sabathia and A.J Burnett, the Yanks have to be the odds on favorite to win it all in 2009.
