Mark Teixeira: According to Michael Silverman, the Boston Red Sox have made an 8 year offer to Mark Teixeira.
The Sox have made an offer, the biggest and longest yet for this current ownership group. The offer is believed to be for at least eight years, with ownership and baseball operations cognizant that Teixeira, 29, represents the safest bet they can make for at least this year and next to shore up the heart of an aging lineup.
