May 15 SS Miguel Tejada will likely have his first day out of the starting lineup Thursday in the final game of the Giants series. "I think we might be a go for tomorrow," manager Cecil Cooper said of giving Tejada a day off. "He's kind of relented (to), so to speak, a little arm-twisting. It's going to be big to do it because you can be worn out." Yahoo! Sports


May 15 Tejada is likely to get his first day off this season Thursday afternoon when the Astros finish their series with the Giants, the Houston Chronicle reports.

Recommendation: This has nothing to do with his wrists, as Cooper has said for some time he wanted to get Tejada a day off. He should be back in the lineup Friday against the Rangers.
