Didn't Washington offer him 5?

Did anything legally ever happen to Miguel Tejada once it turned out he was older? Cause it seems like there's a lot of millions of dollars that are paid out based on you being a certain age (age curves, decline) and I'd think taking an extra 50 or 70 mil on a contract while lying about your age would be a major crime.

According to @DfineNrmLC, the #MysteryTeam in the sweepstakes for Yoenis Cespedes was the #BlueJays. He ultimately re-signed with #Mets.

Meola (@DfineNrmLC) has broken the Stanton, Ramirez and Maeda signings, along with financials. He's very credible. https://t.co/bTItx4mzp2

While he has reported some signings in recent memory, I just can't allow myself to become engorged over an unsubstantiated claim. What necessarily makes him different than any of the usual suspects that conveniently use the Jays as the mystery team?
