Tejada may change mind and play in winter league

As you probably know, Tejada previously decided to end his long tradition of playing in Dominican winter games, and said he would stay in Florida, preparing for the regular season.  However, now Tejada has second thoughts because his winter league team is down 0-3 in the playoffs, and he may play in the Dominican games.  Maybe this isn't that big a deal, but I was hoping that Tejada might improve his MLB performance next season if he rested in the off-season.  Dying Quail previously showed that rest games during the season helped Tejada's performance.  It makes sense that off-season rest may help him too.  Few ML stars play winter league games when they reach his age.

Doesn't seem like a big deal..

If he’s just going to play a few games.

Let the guy play

It’s not like he’s ever going to get to play in a playoff game again in the States.
