According to Jon Heyman of SI.com, Miguel Tejada is working out in Miami with renowned trainer Pete Bommarito in hopes of finding a job.

Tejada, who turns 38 in May, batted just .239/.270/.326 with four homers and a .596 OPS over 343 plate appearances with the Giants last season before being released in September. He can’t play shortstop anymore and has a .660 OPS over the past two seasons, so a spring training invite might be the best-case scenario at this point.

Miguel Tejada is hoping to receive a big-league deal this winter.

He’s going to face an uphill battle on that front. Tejada was designated for assignment at the end of August by the Giants and drew no interest from other teams around the league. The 37-year-old infielder batted just .239 with four home runs and an ugly .596 OPS in 343 plate appearances for San Francisco this season. It goes without saying, but his “defense” didn’t add any additional value for the Giants. A retirement announcement may be coming in the next few months.
