Around the League: What's up with some Braves alumni?

A few former Braves made headlines this weekend. Here's a little round up:

The Red Sox seemed to be very interested in Jarrod Saltalamacchia, one of the five prospects sent to the Rangers for Mark Teixeira last season. According to this rumor, the Rangers would want a top pitching prospect in return.

Speaking of Tex, he picked up his 200th career homerun on Sunday in the Angles 4-3 win over the Mariners.

The LA Dodgers are not too happy with their $18 million investment, Andruw Jones, who they just placed on the 60 DL to make room for Takashi Saito. For those counting, Jones hit .158 with 14 RBIs in 75 games with the Dodgers this season. The Braves dodged a bullet there.
