Houston Astros shortstop Miguel Tejada has told a Dominican newspaper that he expected to join the struggling Cibaenas Aguilas as soon as this weekend for the first round of the LiDom playoffs. Cibaenas is winless in three games thus far in the postseason.
The 2002 American League MVP and a five-time All-Star, Tejada has played winterball in the Dominican Republic ever year since 1995, batting .266 with 12 homers in 212 games for the Aguilas over eleven winters. He batted .283 for Houston in 2008, hitting 13 homers with 66 RBIs for his least-productive season since hitting .233 with Oakland in 1998.
The Licey Tigres are 3-1 in the first round after beating the Este Azucareros, 10-8, on Wednesday night as Anderson Hernandez collected three hits, three runs and three RBIs. The Azucareros are now 3-2, while the Cibao Gigantes are 2-2.
