maybe raffy was right... (Tejada Charged)

[Yeti]

While not a current big name, I wouldn't be surprised if Bagwell's name was on that list somewhere. And just because I never liked him, I wish Biggio's would be too.

how can you not like craig biggio?

 

agreed on bagwell.

His tendency to cover his elbow in body armor and lean into pitches?

we have a winner!

 

on the subject of Biggio getting hit by pitched, i must say that seeing Wood drill him in the 20K game was particularly gratifying

Tejada pleads guilty.

 

Link.

 

Under a plea agreement with the same prosecutors pursuing a perjury indictment against Roger Clemens, Tejada admitted he withheld information about an ex-teammate's use of steroids and human growth hormone when questioned by a House committee's investigators in August 2005.

 

The misdemeanor can lead to as much as a year in jail. Federal guidelines call for a lighter sentence, and one of his lawyers, Mark Tuohey, said he thinks Tejada will receive probation.

 

and furthermore...

 

But Tuohey said Tejada's status has been discussed with immigration officials. The lawyer does not believe Tejada will be deported because of this case.

 

"Because of the nature of the offense, considered a petty offense, not a crime of moral turpitude, we believe it will have no impact on his immigration status at all," Tuohey said. "And he plans - and he will soon in the next few years - be welcomed to citizenship in the United States."

 

It doesn't look like this will affect Tejada's playing status for the near future.

well at least you can tell he's actually remorseful, the crying didn't seem fake..... unlike the arod interview where alex came off as a complete phony (different situations, i know.... but still)
