The Baltimore Sun's Peter Schmuck is reporting Miguel Tejada has signed with the Orioles, where he'll move to third base, shifting Garrett Atkins to first base.
I don't think the Astros weren't ever not interested in Tejada, but they were not interested in his price tag. It'll be interesting to see what he signed for.
UPDATE: SI's Jon Heyman says it's a one-year $6m deal with performance bonuses. This is approximately $1.5m more than what Ed Wade just gave to Pedro Feliz, but I don't care. I'm kind of glad Tejada is officially gone as the idea of bringing him back, just to screw over Tommy Manzella, had never left the back of my mind. Feliz is a true third baseman, and while it blocks Chris Johnson for another year, it opens up SS1 for Manzella.
Now just to get Matsui off the books...
