FOX Sports on MSN - MLB - Sources: O's trading Tejada to Astros
—
Tejada, signed through 2009 at $12 million per season, is expected to play shortstop for Houston. The move means that the Astros are unlikely to offer their incumbent shortstop, Adam Everett, a contract by Wednesday's midnight deadline to tender proposals. Ty Wigginton will play third.

Ervin Santana Can Rest Easy: Miguel Tejada To The Astros
6-4-2 — an Angels/Dodgers double play blog — Ken Rosenthal is reporting that the Astros have shipped Luke Scott, RHP Matt Albers, and "prospects" to Baltimore in exchange for Miguel Tejada. That eliminates one long-standing Angel trade rumor right there.

Astros Acquire Tejada
Eli's MLB Rumors — The Houston Astros have traded Luke Scott, Manny Albers, Troy Patton, Dennis Safarte, and Michael Constanzo in exchange for Miguel Tejada. Tejada is very reliable, and hit .296 last year with 18 HRs and 81 RBIs. Since the Astros have Ty Wigginton, I think they will keep Tejada at shortstop. Although this trade should improve their offense, they weakened their pitching so much that it still has them behind the Cubs and Brewers. Scott, Albers, and Patton should find spots in the Orioles lineup right away, and it gives them a chance to improve on their record from 2007.
