Steve Henson of Yahoo Sports is reporting that a front office source from another team is telling him a trade between Atlanta and Arizona is “pretty far along”. The deal as reported would include Arizona getting Mark Teixeira in exchange for a prospect and Coner Jackson or Chad Tracy.

Update 8:05 - Jon Heyman of SI.com is reporting that Teixeira will be traded by Thursday’s deadline. The deal, according to Heyman, with the D’backs is not as close as reports may indicate. The Angels, Dodgers, Red Sox and Yankees may still be players.
