Tejada Returns to Baltimore Orioles: It's Deja Vu All Over Again


In the recent wake of the MLB season underway, Miguel Tejada is once again a free agent and he's heading back to Baltimore.

The six-time All Star shortshop signed a one-year deal for $6 million with the Baltimore Orioles.

Of course, that's chump change compared to Tejada's first signing with the team as a free agent back in 2003, for a six-year $72 million deal.

The shortshop only managed to play for Baltimore four years before being traded to the Houston Astros in 2007.

While playing for the Astros Tejada put-up some decent numbers, but will the 35-year old shortshop have what the Orioles need to get the job done in Birdland?

Well, that question remains for half of the Orioles roster. Hopefully, by mid-season Mr. Tejada won't cry and plead for a trade again- since he already knows the situation of the team.
