Tejada Under the Microscope

Miguel Tejada is coming under scrutiny as the congressional committee prepares to meet next month to discuss performance enhancing drugs in baseball. With investigators already checking into claims by Roger Clemens that he did not use steroids, House Oversight and Government Reform Committee chairman Henry A. Waxman (D-Calif.) has asked investigators to look into whether or not Tejada lied under oath when he testified before congress.

The Mitchell Report , Waxman noted, "directly contradicts key elements of Mr. Tejada's testimony."

Wasting no time, Waxman and Davis dispatched a letter to Attorney General Michael Mukasey urging a criminal probe of the one-time American League MVP.

You can bet the Houston Astros are sweating right now- in addition to Tejada.
