His decline is going to come 2 years earlier than the Astros thought.

I don't know how background checks don't find some of these things. Especially since his green card said he was born 2 years earlier.I do agree his decline could come earlier and I would think it could be a breach of the contract for fraud.

That interview was BS and an ambush. It was totally uncalled for.The guy's probably lucky Tejada's mature enough to let him keep his teeth.That interview made me

Shocked when I saw the interview.
I kept waiting for Sosa's lawyer to come in and all of a sudden Tejada forgets how to speak/understand English. Unprofessional by the interviewer, but then again, he wasn't the one living a lie.

Just saw the interview. That was ridiculous. His age isn't important in the least.
And just like MLB teams know who is and isn't using steroids, I'm pretty confident they know how old people are.

There's no denying Tejada has been a prominent name in steroids (I believe Canseco mentioned him in Juiced). That aside...If Tejada's knowingly lied about his age.....to get an advantage, Who in there right mind is going to believe he never used performance enhancers.....to get an advantage?? After all, he said himself he was a poor kid trying to find a way out.I don't take the whole age thing as an end all -- he's still a solid player. He's lied about his age for this long, who's going to believe a liar about anything else? I wonder what else he'll finally want to get off his chest. (And note: He didn't get the age issue off his chest. It was taken off it for him)
