Crystal Ball: Mark Teixeira circa 2015

If conventional wisdom is both conventional and wise, then hindsight is indeed 20/20. Considering hindsight gives you optic into the validity of decisions made in the past with perfect vision, then all we would need to understand the eight year, $175-$185 million dollar offer that may (or may not) be in front of Mark Teixeira right now is knowledge of his future production.

So if you will, suspend disbelief and journey with me for a second to 2015, eight years after Mark Teixeira agreed to an eight year, $185 million dollar contract with the Boston Red Sox.

While we all know that the measure of success in Boston is no longer limited to the domain of personal achievement, the Red Sox organization has set the bar for achievement in championship hardware only, my crystal ball can’t see the breadth of all that is to come. Given it’s limitations, we’ll have to focus our scrying into the future to the performance of Teixeira himself.
