Rosenthal's Latest: Teixeira, Dodgers, Washburn

Ken Rosenthal spoke before today's Yankees-Red Sox game on Fox and had a few items for the Hot Stove...

• The Braves have yet to decide if they are going to be buyers or sellers at the deadline. If they do decide to sell, they will start taking bids for Mark Teixeira. Earlier this week we heard from Jayson Stark that the Rays, Red Sox, Dodgers, Angels and Yankees have contacted the Braves about Teixeira. Today Stark told us that we can scratch the Rays off that list. Rosenthal adds the D-Backs to the list and says they make the most sense, but it is unlikely that they will be willing to offer the right players.
• The acquisition of Casey Blake means the Dodgers will probably not seek a better bat to play shortstop.
• The Yankees and Mariners have yet to discuss who the Yankees would give up for Jarrod Washburn.
