Let The Lamp Afix Its Beam


And lo, let it be written that those who have held fast to the true faith of Chipper Jones and John Smoltz will be rewarded. So it was written of old and so the covenant has been upheld. Today, true believers, we have truly been rewarded- Mark Teixeira has left the sweltering plains of Texas and joined the chosen flock in Atlanta.

With his career OPS+ of 127, Brother Mark is exactly what Atlanta needs, especially since it seems that brother Andruw is about to depart our flock for wealtheir pastures. And the best rumors also suggest that the Braves are on the verge of maybe acquiring Octavio Dotel from Kansas City to further solidify our Bullpen. Suddenly, another NL East title seems to be within our grasp. The fact that Mark has Atlanta ties, being a former Yellow Jacket, suggests that this is nothing less than destiny.

Update: Atlanta just traded Kyle Daives for Octavio Dotel. This should be good.
