More Dominican ID fraud 'time bombs' to come?

Not really news. Guys like Renteria set this thing in motion - and having been to the Dominican a few times - it doesn't surprise me that these players come by fake IDs pretty easily.

Just add three years to whatever they say they are and make your decisions from there.
This is not new.

A form of cheating that is as fraudulent and guilty as Steriods

Albert Pujols? Or shall I say Alfredo Ricardo Hernandez Estadia Dominquez.

get rid of them liars

There really needs to be more scrutinization of records from these Third World countries. This is the second time in the past few months that a fairly prominent player (Carmona and Leo Nunez of the Marlins) has been exposed as lying about their identity.

Major League Baseball is paying up to millions of dollars to some of these players.
I do not understand why they do not have these Dominican players (and others for that matter) take lie-detector tests to prove their ages. Hundreds of corporations and the federal government require millions of employees in this country to take lie-detector tests, and these employees receive much less compensation than these baseball players are receiving. If the ball players choose not to take the tests, let them work construction or pack groceries at the local supermarket.

Alphonse Soriano plays and has bad knees as though he is 5 years older than claimed. Good luck getting rid of his contract (with 3 yaers at 18 million each and a full no-trade clause), Cubbies.

It's not so much the age thing as that they gave false names or information to get their work visas which won't make it easy for them the next time around. Those that have been found to give false info are subject to deportation.

Burn their agents also , charge them with criminal fraud . IRS , Immigration wire fraud, the list can be lengthy, but burn them !! Get them both on the polygraph after the contract agreement is
reached and before the official singing .

Lie detectors aren't infailable which is why they can't be used as evidence in court and you can't make someone take one anyway.

A lie detector wouldn't do anything, the method can't even be used in a court of law, why don't people get this? This issue should be handled same as a regular immigration case. MLB has an obligation to the American legal system to bring these kids in legally. Or see to it that they have the resources to apply for a visa.

Look here genius...I'm not talking about using it in a court of law...I'm talking about Major League baseball using it to protect their own financial interests (knowing how old a player is before offering them millions of dollars)...corporations do this EVERY DAY...do you understand this??????yes, you cannot require someone to take one, but you can deny them employment if they don't....the federal government does it ALL THE TIME

a lie its a lie, where can you go to hide? or where can you run without being running at all? you can't hide the truth because the darkness will vanish one's the light it shows up!!!

Kill them all !!! Electric chairs!!!

does anyone believe pujols is a day under 35?

Look here genius...

We are all geniuses on here. Like a Menza group of sports. I know I am. There is one guy on college football threads though that I think cheated on the test to get in.

As long as there is another team waiting in the wings to sign a player the teams will continue to turn a blind eye towards this.

Lying illegal aliens? Who wouldve guessed it?
