The contract would be the longest and richest in club history .
The value could almost double the previous club record , the $ 90 million guaranteed last year to Torii Hunter .
Reagins declined to provide the value of Teixeira 's offer .
The Angels are believed to have offered at least $ 160 million , matching or exceeding the highest offer so far reported for Teixeira .
Owner Arte Moreno flew from his Arizona home to Las Vegas on Tuesday and met personally with Scott Boras , the agent for Teixeira .
Angels spokesman Tim Mead said he believed Moreno presented the offer to Boras at that time .
Mead also said he did not know when the offer might expire .
None of the other teams in the Teixeira sweepstakes -- the Boston Red Sox , Baltimore Orioles and Washington Nationals -- has been reported to have offered more than eight years .
The Nationals reportedly have bid $ 160 million over eight years , the Orioles between $ 140 million and $ 150 million over seven years .
The details of the Boston bid have not been reported .
The Angels had exclusive negotiating rights with Teixeira for the first 15 days after the World Series , but they declined to make an offer during that time and said they would do so at an appropriate time .
Boras has had one month since then to solicit bids from other teams , enabling him to let Moreno know how the market had developed and enabling Moreno to make his first -- and perhaps only -- offer without Boras shopping that offer to other teams .
The Angels have not wavered from treating Teixeira as their top priority , even as other coveted options have evaporated .
The Angels negotiated with pitcher CC Sabathia , a favorite among their scouts , but they chose not to make an offer after deciding they would not match the New York Yankees ' initial $ 140-million bid .
Sabathia agreed to a seven-year , $ 161-million deal with the Yankees late Tuesday night , hours after Moreno met with Boras .
On Friday , outfielder Raul Ibanez signed a three-year , $ 31.5-million contract with the Philadelphia Phillies .
The Angels had considered signing Ibanez if they lost out on Teixeira , with Ibanez playing left field and Kendry Morales replacing Teixeira at first base .
The Angels ' eight-year offer first was reported Friday night on the team-owned radio station , AM 830 . |

Prediction : Red Sox Will Nab Teixeira
<m> ESPN </m> is reporting that the Nationals have offered Mark Teixeira an 8 - year , $160 million contract .
At the same time , SI . com is reporting that , “ The Red Sox are one of the most aggressive pursuers of Teixeira , with several executives predicting he may wind up there . ”
The Nationals ’ offer sets the bar for Teixeira ’ s services .
Will the Sox have to offer more money and / or years , or does playing in Boston , for a winning team , with very a passionate fan base mean more than playing near his hometown in Maryland ?
Naturally Scott Boras will try to draw this out as long as he can .
However , Teixeira has said he would like a resolution by Christmas .
The question is , now that the Angels have lost out on CC Sabathia , will they be all the more motivated to retain Teixeira ?
Could they swoop in with an overwhelming offer ?
The LA Times says the Angels are reluctant to go past seven years for Teixeira .
And though they still need more pitching , the Yankees can never be discounted .
However , unfortunately for the Angels , Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports that two major - league sources said Teixeira would prefer to be on the East Coast for family reasons .
With that in mind , the Nationals and Orioles are pushing hard to bring Teixeira back to the Maryland area .
Last night , Rosenthal reported that , according to a major - league source , the Red Sox are making progress in their quest to sign Teixeira .
“ Headway was being made earlier today , ” the source said .
And a rival general manager whose plans could be affected by the Red Sox ’ s addition of Teixeira also indicated that a deal was getting closer .
Teixeira is seeking a 10 - year contract for at least $20 million per season .
The Red Sox preference would be to sign him to a deal between six and eight years .
The free - agent first baseman will be 29 on April 11 , coinciding with the opening week of the 2009 season .
By all indications , he ’ s a solid long - term investment .
Eight years seems like a reasonable contract - length for a player of Teixeira ’ s age and ability .
But if the Sox are pushed to 10 years , they would likely deem it acceptable .
They will do whatever it takes to get it done .
Teixeira is the big fish they ’ re determined not to let slip away .
Having never hit fewer than 26 homers in his six major - league seasons , Teixeira certainly seems like a better long - term investment than Sabathia .
Paying astronomical money to a guy who plays every day makes more sense than guaranteeing it to one who plays every five days , and who has weight issues .
Questions about his long term durability will continue to dog Sabathia for at least the next couple of years .
Teixeira remains the hottest commodity on the free agent market because he ’ s been durable , injury - free , and highly productive .
Over six full seasons , his career stat line looks like this : . 290 average , . 919 OPS , 203 HR , 676 RBI
Last season , split between the Braves and Angels , Teixeira hit . 308 , with 33 home runs and 121 RBI .
He ’ s proven himself in both leagues .
He is an All Star , a two - time Gold Glove winner , and a two - time Silver Slugger winner .
Without question , Teixeira is a very solid hitter and a bona fide slugger ; he is one of just five players in Major League history to hit at least 100 home runs in his first three seasons .
For these reasons , he has been described as the “ apple of Theo Epstein ’ s eye . ”
This is why the Red Sox will not fail in their effort to bring home their single highest priority this offseason . |

Prediction : Red Sox Will Nab Teixeira
ESPN is reporting that the Nationals have offered <m> Mark Teixeira </m> an 8 - year , $160 million contract .
At the same time , SI . com is reporting that , “ The Red Sox are one of the most aggressive pursuers of Teixeira , with several executives predicting he may wind up there . ”
The Nationals ’ offer sets the bar for Teixeira ’ s services .
Will the Sox have to offer more money and / or years , or does playing in Boston , for a winning team , with very a passionate fan base mean more than playing near his hometown in Maryland ?
Naturally Scott Boras will try to draw this out as long as he can .
However , Teixeira has said he would like a resolution by Christmas .
The question is , now that the Angels have lost out on CC Sabathia , will they be all the more motivated to retain Teixeira ?
Could they swoop in with an overwhelming offer ?
The LA Times says the Angels are reluctant to go past seven years for Teixeira .
And though they still need more pitching , the Yankees can never be discounted .
However , unfortunately for the Angels , Ken Rosenthal of Fox Sports reports that two major - league sources said Teixeira would prefer to be on the East Coast for family reasons .
With that in mind , the Nationals and Orioles are pushing hard to bring Teixeira back to the Maryland area .
Last night , Rosenthal reported that , according to a major - league source , the Red Sox are making progress in their quest to sign Teixeira .
“ Headway was being made earlier today , ” the source said .
And a rival general manager whose plans could be affected by the Red Sox ’ s addition of Teixeira also indicated that a deal was getting closer .
Teixeira is seeking a 10 - year contract for at least $20 million per season .
The Red Sox preference would be to sign him to a deal between six and eight years .
The free - agent first baseman will be 29 on April 11 , coinciding with the opening week of the 2009 season .
By all indications , he ’ s a solid long - term investment .
Eight years seems like a reasonable contract - length for a player of Teixeira ’ s age and ability .
But if the Sox are pushed to 10 years , they would likely deem it acceptable .
They will do whatever it takes to get it done .
Teixeira is the big fish they ’ re determined not to let slip away .
Having never hit fewer than 26 homers in his six major - league seasons , Teixeira certainly seems like a better long - term investment than Sabathia .
Paying astronomical money to a guy who plays every day makes more sense than guaranteeing it to one who plays every five days , and who has weight issues .
Questions about his long term durability will continue to dog Sabathia for at least the next couple of years .
Teixeira remains the hottest commodity on the free agent market because he ’ s been durable , injury - free , and highly productive .
Over six full seasons , his career stat line looks like this : . 290 average , . 919 OPS , 203 HR , 676 RBI
Last season , split between the Braves and Angels , Teixeira hit . 308 , with 33 home runs and 121 RBI .
He ’ s proven himself in both leagues .
He is an All Star , a two - time Gold Glove winner , and a two - time Silver Slugger winner .
Without question , Teixeira is a very solid hitter and a bona fide slugger ; he is one of just five players in Major League history to hit at least 100 home runs in his first three seasons .
For these reasons , he has been described as the “ apple of Theo Epstein ’ s eye . ”
This is why the Red Sox will not fail in their effort to bring home their single highest priority this offseason . |

Sources : Sox May Not Be Out Of Teixeira Chase
Team Execs Meet With Player's Agent
UPDATED 3 : 09 AM EST Dec 19 , 2008
Despite saying they have been outbid for free agent first baseman Mark Teixeira , the Red Sox do not believe they are completely out of the chase , SportsCenter 5 has learned .
Sources have also told SportsCenter 5's Mike Lynch more about the negotiations that took place Thursday at Teixeira's Texas home .
<m> Lynch </m> reported the Red Sox team of owner John Henry , COO Larry Lucchino and General Manager Theo Epstein offered Teixeira , 28 , an eight - year deal worth $184 million or $23 million per season .
It was then that agent Scott Boras countered by asking for an eight - year contract worth $200 million , sources said .
Lynch reported that Henry became infuriated at that point , balking at the massive sum .
In an e - mail to media members Thursday night , Henry said , "We met with Mr . Teixeira and were very much impressed with him .
After hearing about his other offers , however , it seems clear that we are not going to be a factor . "
Henry's reference to the "other offers" leaves open the possibility that he is calling Boras' bluff , who has been known to inflate the value of offers and the number of suitors pursuing his client , Lynch reported .
Boras represented former Red Sox center fielder Johnny Damon , who signed with the New York Yankees in 2005 after the Boston brass apparently refused to believe that the offer from their archrivals was real .
Lynch also learned that one of Teixeira's hometown teams , the Washington Nationals , has made a huge offer .
Teixeira is a Maryland native .
Teixeira was traded from Atlanta to Los Angeles in July .
He hit . 308 with 33 homers and 121 RBIs last season , including . 358 with 13 homers and 43 RBIs in 54 games with the Angels .
The Angeles said last week they made an eight - year offer .
Henry had expressed concern about a contract of eight years or more .
"We all have limits , " he wrote the AP on Wednesday .
"Eight years is a very long time in baseball and everywhere else . "
He also said the amount the team is willing to spend on a free agent "depends on both" the economy and the player being sought . |

Team Execs Meet With Player's Agent

Despite saying they have been outbid for free agent first baseman Mark Teixeira , the Red Sox do not believe they are completely out of the chase , SportsCenter 5 has learned .
Sources have also told SportsCenter 5's Mike Lynch more about the negotiations that took place Thursday at Teixeira's Texas home .
Lynch reported the Red Sox team of owner John Henry , COO Larry Lucchino and General Manager Theo Epstein offered <m> Teixeira </m> , 28 , an eight - year deal worth $184 million or $23 million per season .
It was then that agent Scott Boras countered by asking for an eight - year contract worth $200 million , sources said .
Lynch reported that Henry became infuriated at that point , balking at the massive sum .
In an e - mail to media members Thursday night , Henry said , "We met with Mr . Teixeira and were very much impressed with him .
After hearing about his other offers , however , it seems clear that we are not going to be a factor . "
Henry's reference to the "other offers" leaves open the possibility that he is calling Boras' bluff , who has been known to inflate the value of offers and the number of suitors pursuing his client , Lynch reported .
Boras represented former Red Sox center fielder Johnny Damon , who signed with the New York Yankees in 2005 after the Boston brass apparently refused to believe that the offer from their archrivals was real .
Lynch also learned that one of Teixeira's hometown teams , the Washington Nationals , has made a huge offer .
Teixeira is a Maryland native .
Teixeira was traded from Atlanta to Los Angeles in July .
He hit . 308 with 33 homers and 121 RBIs last season , including . 358 with 13 homers and 43 RBIs in 54 games with the Angels .
The Angeles said last week they made an eight - year offer .
Henry had expressed concern about a contract of eight years or more .

Perrotto 's iteration had AAA RHP Nick Adenhart and AAA SS Brandon Wood heading a package that would lead to Peavy topping the Angels ' rotation .
While the Angels are being lumped in with the big spenders of baseball ( read : New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox ) , there is little to indicate the Angels ' off-season plans included dropping $ 20MM per on Teixeira and another $ 15 + MM on a starting pitcher .
As a back-up plan to a failure to land Teixeira , yes .
However , an interesting scenario develops if Teixeira spurs the West Coast in favor of working closer to home for the Washington Nationals or Baltimore Orioles .
In this scenario , the Angels would have the luxury of dealing Peavy to the Padres for a Wood/Adenhart/Reggie Willits/Reliever package , and reviving its offense with the signings of non-tender 3B/2B Ty Wigginton and Jonny Gomes . |

Perrotto 's iteration had AAA RHP Nick Adenhart and AAA SS Brandon Wood heading a package that would lead to Peavy topping the Angels ' rotation .
While the Angels are being lumped in with the big spenders of baseball ( read : New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox ) , there is little to indicate the Angels ' off-season plans included dropping $ 20MM per on Teixeira and another $ 15 + MM on a starting pitcher .
As a back-up plan to a failure to land Teixeira , yes .
However , an interesting scenario develops if Teixeira spurs the West Coast in favor of working closer to home for the Washington Nationals or Baltimore Orioles .
In this scenario , the Angels would have the luxury of dealing Peavy to the Padres for a Wood/Adenhart/Reggie Willits/Reliever package , and reviving its offense with the signings of non-tender 3B/2B Ty Wigginton and Jonny Gomes . |

<m> Nationals' </m> Eight - Year Offer to Teixeira Reportedly Bumped as High as $184M
December 23 , 2008
For weeks now , Mark Teixeira has contemplated his next home - - a waiting game that has slowly shortened the list of teams in pursuit of his services .
But evidently , the waiting hasn't caused Teixeira's price tag to drop even the slightest .
One report posted online last night by MASN Sports' Roch Kubatko suggested that the Washington Nationals have upgraded their initial offer to Teixeira - - eight years , $160 million - - to somewhere between $178 million and $184 million over the same timeframe .
No member of the team's front office would add comment yesterday on the current offer or indicate whether the team had sweetened the deal .
By way of declining to offer the numbers of Washington's proposal to Teixeira , team president Stan Kasten said , "There are bargains , but luxury goods are still not being discounted . "
Regardless of the money , the team's front office still knows it would take a mild upset for the 28 - year - old to settle on a deal with Washington .
On Sunday night , the Los Angeles Angels withdrew their contract offer to Teixeira , believing he had no sincere interest in playing for the organization with which he ended the 2008 season .
The Boston Red Sox and Baltimore Orioles have offers on the table , and though they have yet to make a concrete offer the New York Yankees might also contemplate a last - minute bid .
Various news reports late last week pegged the Boston offer to be as high as $184 million over eight years , though subsequent rumors suggested that the numbers are a little lower - - perhaps between $165 million and $180 million .
The Orioles have the weakest offer of the bunch - - a proposal reportedly worth between $140 million and $150 million over seven years .
So far , no team involved has offered a contract longer than eight years .
Teixeira's agent , Scott Boras , entered the free agency process hoping his client could attract a 10 - year deal .
Either way , Teixeira will end up with one of the biggest paydays in baseball history , almost certainly exceeding the $161 million ( over seven years ) that fellow free agent CC Sabathia received from the Yankees earlier this offseason . |

If so , that blows the reported eight - year , $160 million offers by the Angels and the Washington Nationals out of the water .
Patrick said Monday morning : "If it's true they're offering $200 million to a career . 290 hitter , it'll be interesting to see what the Angels do . "
He then speculated the Angels might turn their interest to Manny Ramirez .
The Boston Herald's Michael Silverman wrote in his Monday column the Red Sox offer was expected to be in the range of $145 million to $175 million , possibly more .
He also noted that it is rare for Boston to extend contracts to players that go to their 36th birthdays , with the exceptions of Jason Varitek's just - expired deal and Mike Lowell's contract .
Teixeira will be 29 in April . |
