Good morning FTRS! I hope everyone had a safe and happy Independence Day. Cade is out this week, so y’all get to deal with me today.
It was a big weekend for former Jacket great Mark Teixeira, who hit his 400th and 401st home runs of his MLB career on Sunday. Teixeira became only the 5th switch-hitter in MLB history to hit 400 career home runs, joining the elite company of Mickey Mantle, Eddie Murray, Chipper Jones, and Carlos Beltran. Two of those 4 are hall of Famers, and another will likely be voted in as soon as he is eligible.
