Similarly , Buster Olney of ESPN . com believes the Nationals do not expect to sign Teixeira , despite making a eight - year offer .

… ok , so , the Sox have the high offer , the Angels are out , the Nationals lack confidence , and the O ’ s have reportedly only offered seven years … which would suggest the Red Sox are in very , very good position to land teixeira … unless , of course , a new team can be wrangled in to the mix …
In an earlier report , Newsday reported that Teixeira ’ s agent , Scott Boras , is working to get the Yankees involved again .
Olney believes Brian Cashman made Teixeira an offer earlier in the off - season , but has since pulled it back .
… in case you ’ re wondering , six articles and the Mets are not mentioned once as ever having interest in teixeira …
