The Braves organization is very smart when trading players. The latest trade involved Mark Teixiera (pronounced "Te-shear-a") who was acquired a few weeks ago from the Texas Rangers (2003-2007.) Fast becoming a fan favorite, this graduate of Georgia Tech in Atlanta is having a great start as a Braves player. He already has 9 home runs in just 18 games and has definitely added a spark to the Braves lineup. Not to be outdone by Jeff Francoeur who has his "Francoeur's Franks" in the stands, Teixiera now has a ballad tribute performed by a couple guys from Auburn making the rounds on youtube.com. Those two guys were even featured tonight on the pre-game show on SportSouth cable channel. (See video posted below)
