It was announced today, and later confirmed by the man himself, that Miguel Tejada is in fact 2 years older than he has lead us to believe over the last 15 years. In 1993, Tejada, a youth out of the D.R., told scouts he was 17 years old. He is currently listed in the Houston Astros Media Guide as 33 years old, but he is in fact 35 years old. This goes over really well considering Tejada is also under investigation regarding his alleged steroid use in previous seasons. I guess the fact he lied about his age is going to go over real well with the authorities when he tells them that he didn't use roids.
But we have no reason to believe he is lying, do we?
