Guest JerryDrake Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Where yall think Miguel Tejada will go? It's apparent the A's dont want him even though he is the MVP of the team. Could he be playing for Baltimore? the Mets? If he goes to the Mets he will have to play 3rd base, because they already got a good young SS, who could be their franchise player.

the max 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Don't forget that San Diego has said that they're going to be spending money, and with the new ballpark and the possibility of playing in the same area, Tejada might end up there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 Well, lots of talk of him going to Baltimore but most of the people I hear say he's over rated. I personally think Tejada > Deivi Cruz but whatever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 He goes to the Mets, with the Padres nabbing Kaz Matsui. And I do understand that the Mets have more pressing needs than a SS (or 3B, I like Wigginton), but I don't think that concerns them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted October 11, 2003 I think the Dodgers might grab him. They're a high payroll team who DESPERATELY need any kind of decent hitting infielder. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 Can they afford him now that they don't have Murdoch money backing them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EVIL~! alkeiper 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 I imagine so. Los Angeles is a big market, the Dodgers have a large fanbase, and the stadium is considered high quality. In addition, the Dodgers will clear Brian Jordan and Andy Ashby's contracts, an easy $15 million. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Bobby Cox is God Report post Posted October 12, 2003 I think either the Dodgers or Mets will grab him as well, the Mets have a bit of an edge with Howe at the helm. LA could use him however, Izturis is excellent on D but the offense on that team is so weak, they could go without Izturis' glove. But then again, Tejada ain't too damn shabby himself.

Guest Choken One Report post Posted October 12, 2003 He needs to get out of the AL. He will not get anywhere playing under Jeter, Nomar and AROD's shadow... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Gatornibs Report post Posted October 12, 2003 Tampa Bay. The probably starting lineup for TB has both Sheffield and Everett in it, Tejada could take place of either! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the pinjockey 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 Ok, I am going to try and decipher that last post. In the offseason, Tampa Bay, plans on going after Gary Sheffield and Carl Everett. And you are suggesting that Tejada might be an option lieu of one of those two? Tampa going after Sheffield and Everett makes no sense considering that the three bright spots they have are all in the outfield. And, honestly, why would Tejada want to go to Tampa? It isn't like they are going to pay big money, to make up for their losing history. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MarvinisaLunatic 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 Tampa needs some pitching. They have a decent enough offense to win more games if they had some better pitching. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
