Congress Wants Tejada Investigation

The leaders of the MLB community (commish Selig and MLBPA chief Fehr) are speaking to Congress right now. ESPN's Jayson Stark is live blogging the event and supposedly, Miguel Tejada was a topic early on:

"Your first official loser of the hearings: Miguel Tejada.

Rep. Henry Waxman said there is now reason to question whether Tejada told his committee the truth when he testified, after Rafael Palmeiro's positive drug test, that he never used performance-enhancing drugs and that he had no knowledge of other players who do.

So the Congressman said he and Rep. Davis would ask the Department of Justice to launch an investigation into "whether Mr. Tejada gave truthful answers to this committee."

What this means is that Tejada now has to worry about a possible perjury-to-Congress rap. Amazingly, Palmeiro -- who inspired all this -- has no worries about the same charge. What a world we live in."

Oh boy...
