Miguel Tejada

[alwz4gbp]

One name that I've not seen tossed around here is Tejada. The Orioles want to rebuild in the worst way. If they are willing to eat some salary, is he someone that perhaps Melvin would target. Granted he declined last year but that is a horrible team with horrible ownership and I'd guess a change in scenery could rejuninate his career. Not to mention, he would add some true veteran leadership and possibly help Braun with his fielding. NOt to mention the fact that they could possibly talk him into switching to 3rd, Hardy at SS and Braun to LF.

Hes got two years left on his contract at 13M/year. It might be worth taking a look at him. How often do you get the opportunity to add a player that would help you offensively and defensively?

Just a thought. Be gentle

tejada would NOT want to switch to third...

Everyone who is interested in Tejada wats him for third base at this point, if he's dealt, that's going to happen.

 

I'd bet almost anything that Tejada is named as a PED user when the Mitchell Report comes out.

If the Angels miss on Cabrera, they are considering Jered Weaver and Brandon Wood for Tejada. This, from Peter Gammons' Insider blog today.

Wow the Angels would be incredibly stupid to do that. Almost as stupid as the Dodgers for signing all these washed up free agents instead of letting the kids play.

"The Astros are being very aggressive and are seeking Miguel Tejada."

 

That's from Peter Abraham's Yankees blog. I love that the 'Stros think they're just a piece or two away. Just when you though their strategy couldn't get any worse...
