Now that we have come to like many of them as fans, how do we know what the real age of the guy who it is we are routing for is? prime example. New York Mets Pitchers - El Duque - Orlando Hernandez. The mets roster says he was born in 1969 which would make him 37/38 this year, but birth certificates from his native country say 1965, i mean this is identity fraud, you can go to jail it americans did this. none of these latinos are really americans, maybe, a-rod, manny, raffy, guys who grew up here but also had latin roots. i don't think this issue is covererd enough. is pedro martinez really 35 or is he 41? no one knows.. he certainly isn't pitching like a 35 to, which is relatively young. my point is, how do we know that yunievsky Bettancourt, the solid Mariners SS from Cuba is only 25, i mean the guy looks 32. also, miggy tejada for the O's, he's only 30 , he looks 36, stuff like this is critical. becaue if they keep lying about their age, they can play way longer than they

then they should of, and stretch their careers 5-10 years longer because of lowering their age, and thus, if they are good like miggy and el duque, keep on pitching and playing and making millions. hey, i'm 34, and work as a computer tech, but have a full time family now and full time job, i only have a BS from the UW, i would love to change on my resume that i also have a masters degree and possibly a PHD, which would make my salary skyrocket. But that is fraud, identity fraud and cheating, and most normal citizens like myself aren't allowed to do this, only unionized members of the Major Leagues have these priviledges to make themselves younger. man, put me in a time machine so I can go see the last grateful dead concert in 1995, but it isn't going to happen. MLB is such a JOKE, A FRAUD and fans should boycott. ALL OF THESE PLAYERS LIE, CHEAT, STEAL, CHEAT ON THEIR WIVES, take drugs, to beat long helding clean records, ruth, maris, aaron. enough is enough, i'm out.
