The Dodgers media guide lists the birthdate for Moises Tamarez as March 6, 1992. This would have made him 16 years old when he signed on Jan. 19, 2009, but 17 during the whole of the DSL season. It appears that the "official" brithdate listed by MLB simply was mis-entered. Great question. The Dodgers media guide lists the birthdate for Moises Tamarez as March 6, 1992.
