Miguel Tejada Put on Waivers...

Well, Miguel Tejada was placed on waivers not too after the trade deadline, read this by ESPN’s Buster Olney

Baltimore's Miguel Tejada and Oakland's Mike Piazza, two major stars mentioned in trade rumors during the summer, hit the waiver wire in the last week -- and one is now in a position to be dealt in August, while the other is not.


Tejada was claimed on waivers by the Chicago White Sox, who may be looking for a shortstop as they consider whether or not to pick up the 2008 option on current shortstop Juan Uribe, who is hitting .215 with 11 homers and 43 RBIs. But the Orioles and White Sox did not work out a deal to allow Tejada to go to Chicago. The Orioles will keep Tejada for the rest of the year, sources say.


Now do we think Tejada stays or goes in the offeason? Granted, a lot of teams put players on waivers to gauge their interest on the market after every trade deadline each year; however, are we assured now that Miggy’s time in Baltimore may be coming to end (via an off-season/winter deal?)

By the time this team is ready to contend, Tejada will be aliability, not an asset. I think the Warehouse has the will, the need to dump his salary and now they just need a decent deal put in front of them.
