Former Baseball Star Canseco Looks To Open Baseball Clinic

By Justin Worsley

Former MLB outfielder Jose Canseco is still looking to be a part of the game, announcing on Twitter that the six-time All-Star is looking for investors to help him open a baseball indoor school.

Canseco, 46, had a stellar career as a pro, hitting 462 with eight teams in his career. In 2005, four years after he retired, the Cuban native revealed in his book "Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant 'Roids, Smash Hits & How Baseball Got Big" that he took anabolic steroid throughout his career. Canseco also fingered former teammates Mark McGwire, Rafael Palmiero, Ivan Rodriguez, Jason Giambi and Juan Gonzalez as fellow Human Growth Hormone users.

"I want to teach kids not to make the mistakes I did and how to become physically and mentally the best players possible," Canseco told Twitter. "I know more about the game than anyone out there I can show you how to be a superstar without the use of any chemicals."

After confessing to using sterioids, Canseco has hit rock bottom. In 2007, Canseco only received a 1.1-percent vote into the Hall of Fame, in order to stay eligible for voting in the next year, a player needs at least 5-percent of voters to select him. The next year, Canseco then took a turn at mixed-martial arts, losing his first match by first-round knockout by former NFL player Vai Sikahema. The fight allegedly took place for a $30,000 purse.

His run into mixed-martial arts was not the first sign of financial struggles for Canseco. In 2003, he announced that fans could "rent" him for a day, at a $5,000 charge.

Canseco last played in 2001 for the Chicago White Sox.
