Whats wrong with Andy LaRoche?
I think of the Sox interest in the Dodgers farm as being part of a 3-way deal. The Dodgers have James Loney at 1st so I have a hard time seeing there interest in Teixeira. However the Red Sox could spin relief help to the Dodgers (Hansen, Delcarmen, other prospects, who knows) for Andy LaRoche who would be part of a LaRoche and (Ellsbury, Bowden, Youkilis, etc etc) for Teixeira. Maybe thats far fetched.
