Hot off the press, Mark Teixiera has been dealt to the Angels for Casey Kotchman and pitching prospect Stephen Marek.  This is just the latest of several big trades going across leagues this year, and with the trade deadline looming just 2 days away, more could come.

Here's a recap of several recent trades, and how they will impact the fantasy landscape:

Chicks dig the long ball...but so do fantasy baseball managers!  Almost a third of the way through the MLB season, it's time to take a quick look at the National League Home Run race.  Why?  Power hitters tend to be some of the most expensive and highly drafted players.  And big home run numbers typically lead to other big counting stats, such as runs batted in and runs scored.

I was checking out the stat line for Brett Myers and I'm honestly pretty bummed out by his performance so far this year.

Of course, it's only been 2 starts, but he's gone 5 innings in both of his starts this year, yielding 3 and 4 runs.  Plus, he's giving up a bunch of hits -- killing his ratio.

A new year brings new Changes in Scenery - Fantasy Players with New MLB Teams!  Now, you're probably thinking: "Of course a new year means that some players have switched teams.  That's what happens in baseball with free agency."
