Career highlights and awards

José Canseco Capas Jr. (born July 2, 1964), is a Cuban-American former Major League Baseball (MLB) outfielder, and designated hitter. Canseco has admitted using performance-enhancing drugs during his playing career, and in 2005 wrote a tell-all book, Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant 'Roids, Smash Hits & How Baseball Got Big, in which he claimed that the vast majority of MLB players use steroids. After retiring from Major League Baseball, he also competed in boxing and mixed martial arts.

Canseco is the identical twin brother of former major league player Ozzie Canseco.

Early years

Canseco was born in Havana, Cuba, and left Cuba with his cousins and family when he and his identical twin brother were infants. They relocated to the United States, with José and Ozzie growing up in the Miami, Florida area, and attending Coral Park High School.

Baseball career (1982–2001)

Minor league baseball (1982–1985)

The Oakland Athletics drafted Canseco in the 15th round of the 1982 Major League Baseball draft. He played minor league baseball with the Medford A's, Madison Muskies, Idaho Falls A's, and the Modesto A's. Canseco started the 1985 season with the Class-AA Huntsville Stars and became known as "Parkway Jose",[1] for his long home runs (25 in half a season), that went close to the Memorial Parkway behind Joe Davis Stadium.

Major League Baseball (1985–2001)

Oakland Athletics (1985–92)

In 1985, Canseco won the Baseball America Minor League Player of the Year Award, and was a late season call-up for the Oakland Athletics. He made his Major League debut on September 2 and struck out in his one at-bat against the Baltimore Orioles. His first hit was off Ron Guidry of the New York Yankees on September 7.[2] and his first home run was off Jeff Russell of the Texas Rangers on September 9.[3] He played in 29 games in the major leagues in 1985. He established himself in 1986, his first full season, being named the American League's Rookie of the Year (the first by an Athletic since Harry Byrd in 1952 with what were then the Philadelphia Athletics), with 33 home runs and 117 RBIs. In 1987, Mark McGwire joined Canseco on the Athletics; McGwire hit 49 home runs that year and was also named the American League Rookie of the Year. Together, he and Canseco formed a fearsome offensive tandem, known as the "Bash Brothers".

Canseco with the A's in 1989

In April 1988, Canseco guaranteed he would hit at least 40 home runs and steal at least 40 bases in the upcoming season.[4] He went on to record 42 home runs and 40 steals becoming the first player in MLB history to hit the 40-40 mark in a single season (a fact unknown to him at that time). In recognition of his record the street in front of his former high school was named after him but was later rescinded in 2008 after he admitted to previously using drugs throughout his career.[5][6] That same year, he helped the Athletics sweep the Boston Red Sox in 4 games in the ALCS, for the series Canseco had a .313 batting average with 3 home runs in 4 games. The A's then meet the Los Angeles Dodgers in the World Series, a matchup that would feature the best hitter in the AL facing the best pitcher and eventual NL Cy Young Award winner in Orel Hershiser , the Dodgers would prevail, upsetting the A's in five games. Canseco hit a Grand Slam in Game 1 in his first official World Series at bat, but it would be his only hit in the Series. He was unanimously named the American League's Most Valuable Player in 1988, with a .307 batting average, 120 runs scored, 124 RBIs, 42 home runs, and 40 stolen bases.

In 1989, Canseco missed all but 65 of the regular season games with a broken wrist, despite not playing a single game in the first half of the season he was voted as an starting outfielder for the American League All Star team and he still managed to hit 17 home runs as the Athletics won their first World Series since 1974, beating the San Francisco Giants in four games. Canseco had a solid postseason hitting for a .323 batting average and 2 home runs including one in the ALCS against the Blue Jays that reached the upper deck of the Sky Dome. Against the Giants in the World Series he hit for a .357 average with a home run in game 3. The 1989 Series was interrupted before Game 3 by a major earthquake in the San Francisco Bay Area.

Canseco came back to form in 1990, and was selected to the all star game with the most votes in the Junior Circuit. During the regular season he hit 37 home runs despite being hampered in the latter part of the year by what would become a recurring back problem. During this season he was given a then-record 5-year/23.5 million dollar contract making him the highest paid player in MLB history at the time. The A's returned to the World Series once again, but were swept by the Cincinnati Reds in four games. Canseco continued to be productive, hitting 44 home runs in 1991 capturing the second home run crown of his career (tied with Detroit's Cecil Fielder) while finishing 4th in the MVP ballot.

From 1986 to 1991 with the A's and despite missing roughly 120 games between 1989 and 1990 due to injury, Canseco averaged 34 home runs a year, had 100+ RBIs 5 times, captured AL Rookie of the Year honors, 2 home run titles, an MVP award, 3 Silver Slugger Awards, 3 American League Pennants, a World Series ring, 8 post season home runs and was selected to 4 All Star Games in his first 6 full Major League seasons. (He was also selected to the All Star Game in 1992 as a member of the Athletics before being traded to the Texas Rangers later that season)

Texas Rangers (1992–94)

On August 31, 1992, in the middle of a game and while he was in the on-deck circle, the A's traded Canseco to the Texas Rangers for Rubén Sierra, Jeff Russell, and Bobby Witt.

On May 26, 1993, during a game against the Cleveland Indians, Carlos Martínez hit a fly ball that Canseco lost sight of as he was crossing the warning track. The ball hit him in the head and bounced over the wall for a home run.[7] The cap[7][8][9] Canseco was wearing on that play, which This Week in Baseball rated in 1998 as the greatest blooper of the show's first 21 years, is in the Seth Swirsky collection. After the incident, the Harrisburg Heat offered him a soccer contract.[10] Three days later, Canseco asked his manager, Kevin Kennedy, to let him pitch the eighth inning of a runaway loss to the Boston Red Sox; he injured his arm, underwent Tommy John surgery, and was lost for the remainder of the season.[11] In his pitching appearance, Canseco allowed three earned runs on two hits and three walks, throwing 33 pitches, but only 12 for strikes.[12]

In the 1994 strike shortened season, Canseco again returned to his former status of power hitter with 31 home runs and 90 RBIs in 111 games. Canseco also stole 15 bases and posted a .282 batting average. He was named comeback player of the year in 1994, and finished in eleventh place in the American League Most Valuable Player voting.

Boston Red Sox (1995–1996)

After playing with the Rangers from 1992 to 1994, Canseco moved on to play with the Boston Red Sox in 1995 along with (former MVP) Roger Clemens and (eventual '95 MVP) Mo Vaughn. The Red Sox captured the AL East Division title to advance to the ALDS making it Canseco's first post season in 5 years, for the regular season he hit 24 home runs with a .306 batting average, his highest since '88. His last home run of the '95 season against Jesse Orosco was Canseco's 300th for his career. In 1996 Canseco had a great first half hitting 26 home runs by the all star break but he was sidelined during August and part of September due to a back injury. He finished the season with 28 homers in 96 games.

Return to Oakland (1997)

In January 1997 he was traded to the Oakland Athletics, reuniting him with Bash Brother Mark McGwire. Health-wise Canseco had a promising start to the season playing in 83 games in the first half hitting 18 home runs by the All Star break but his season was again cut short due to injury. His 23 home runs of the season gave him a total of 254 with the A's uniform, good for 4th in franchise history, McGwire, who was traded to St. Louis that same season, is the all-time leader for the Athletics with 363.

Toronto Blue Jays (1998)

After signing a one-year/ 2 million dollar contract, Canseco did have a productive season again with the Toronto Blue Jays in 1998. For the first time in his career he wore other than his traditional #33, switching to #44 for the first part of the season,(long-time Blue Jay and world series hero Ed Sprague wore #33 for the Jays until he has traded later in the '98 season). He finished the season playing 151 games, his highest in 7 years, splitting duties as DH and in the outfield, he hit a career-high 46 home runs, 3rd best in the AL, and stole 29 bases, the most he had stolen since the 40 he stole in 1988. He also lead the league in strikeouts with 159. He won the AL Silver Slugger award (4th of his career) but his comeback was missed by most fans because of the home run race in the National League between Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa.

Final Seasons (1999–2001)

Canseco went to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays in 1999, and he took by storm the American League hitting 10 home runs in April and a total of 31 by the All Star Break (including number 400 for his career against Toronto's Kelvim Escobar) with a pace for 60+ homers for the season he was voted to the AL All-Star team as the DH, making his first All Star selection in 7 years, however he injured his back days before the mid-summer classic and missed the game as well as the Home Run derby in Fenway Park where he would participate along with former Bash Brother Mark McGwire. He would come back for the final part of the year finishing with 34 Home Runs for the 1999 season. He started the 2000 season with the Devil Rays hitting only 9 home runs in 61 games and by August was claimed off waivers by the New York Yankees, which caught many, including Yankees manager Joe Torre off guard, as the Yankees had four other players who fulfilled a similar role to Canseco.[13] Yankees General Manager Brian Cashman made the claim to prevent the Athletics, Red Sox and Blue Jays, who were in a close race with the Yankees, from acquiring Canseco.[14] He struck out in his only plate appearance in the 2000 World Series against the New York Mets but earned his second World Series ring when they defeated the Mets in five games. Despite this achievement Canseco later called his Yankees tenure "the worst time of [his] life" due to receiving limited playing time.[14]

Canseco played with the Chicago White Sox in 2001, after being cut by the Anaheim Angels in spring training and spending half of the season with the Newark Bears of the independent Atlantic League.As the White Sox DH he finished the season with 16 home runs and 49 RBI in 76 games, including the last multi-home run game of his career against the Kansas City Royals on August 1 of that year. His 462nd and last career home run came against Mike Mussina of the Baltimore Orioles. In 2002, Canseco was signed by the Montreal Expos but was released prior to the regular season. Canseco retired in May 2002 after spending some time playing for the White Sox Triple-A affiliate Charlotte Knights. He made a brief comeback attempt in 2004, but was not offered a spot with the Los Angeles Dodgers after a spring fling.

Awards and Highlights

As of 2016 his 462 career home runs rank him 35th on the MLB all-time list. Canseco was at one time the all-time leader in home runs among Latino players; he was later surpassed by Manny Ramirez, Albert Pujols, David Ortiz, Carlos Delgado, Rafael Palmeiro, Alex Rodriguez, and Sammy Sosa. He was the first player to hit 30 home runs for 4 different clubs; Oakland 33 in '86, Texas 31 in '94, Toronto 46 in '98 and Tampa Bay 34 in '99 (this feat was later surpassed by Fred McGriff and Gary Sheffield who did it for 5 different teams). Canseco was distinguished four times with the Silver Slugger award: three times as an AL outfielder in 1988, 1990, and 1991, and once as a Designated Hitter in 1998. He ranks 4th all time in A's history with 254 home runs and he's one of 11 players in MLB history with 400 home runs and 200 stolen bases. Despite his many injuries during the later part of his career Canseco averaged 40 home runs and 121 RBIs per every 162 games.

Independent League career (2006–present)

Typically a designated hitter, Canseco has taken to the mound as a pitcher several times with Yuma

On June 29, 2006, the independent Golden Baseball League announced Canseco had agreed to a one-year contract to play with the San Diego Surf Dawgs. The League said Canseco had agreed to be subjected to its drug-testing policy "that immediately expels any players found using steroids or illegal drugs."[15] After playing one game for the Surf Dawgs, Canseco was traded to the Long Beach Armada on July 5, 2006. He requested the trade due to "family obligations."[16] On July 31, 2006, Canseco won the Golden Baseball League's Home Run Derby.[17]

Canseco signed a short team deal with the Laredo Broncos of the United Baseball League on August 14, 2010. He served as bench coach and designated hitter.[18]

On April 11, 2011, Canseco signed a deal as a player/manager for the Yuma Scorpions of the North American League.[18]

Canseco joined the Quintana Roo Tigres of the Mexican League in 2012, but was reportedly banned for using testosterone.[19]

On April 20, 2012, the Worcester Tornadoes, of the Canadian American Association of Professional Baseball, announced that they had signed Canseco to a one-season contract[20] for a salary of one thousand dollars a month.[21] In the beginning of August 2012, Canseco left the Tornadoes due to concerns of not receiving his salary, a conflict which led him to sue the team.[22] Canseco quickly signed with the Rio Grande Valley WhiteWings of the North American League. However, though his debut was delayed due to a family emergency.[23]

In early 2013 Canseco played in the Texas Winter League but was only 3 for 16 at the plate.[24] He signed with the Fort Worth Cats of the United League to start the 2013 season.[25]

Steroids

In 2005, Canseco admitted to using anabolic steroids with Jorge Delgado, Damaso Moreno and Manuel Collado in a tell-all book, Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant 'Roids, Smash Hits & How Baseball Got Big. Canseco also claimed that up to 85% of major league players took steroids, a figure disputed by many in the game. In the book, Canseco specifically identified former teammates Mark McGwire, Rafael Palmeiro, Jason Giambi, Iván Rodríguez and Juan González as fellow steroid users, and admitted that he injected them.[26] Most of the players named in the book initially denied steroid use, though Giambi admitted to steroid use in testimony before a grand jury investigating the BALCO case and on January 11, 2010, McGwire admitted publicly to using steroids.

At a Congressional hearing on the subject of steroids in sports, Palmeiro categorically denied using performance-enhancing drugs, while McGwire repeatedly and somewhat conspicuously refused to answer questions on his own suspected use, saying he "didn't want to talk about the past." Canseco's book became a New York Times bestseller. On August 1, 2005, Palmeiro was suspended for 10 days by Major League Baseball after testing positive for steroids.

On December 13, 2007, José Canseco and Jorge Delgado were cited in the Mitchell Report (The Report to the Commissioner of Baseball of an Independent Investigation into the Illegal Use of Steroids and Other Performance Enhancing Substances by Players in Major League Baseball).[27] On December 20, 2007, Canseco was also named in Jason Grimsley's unsealed affidavit as a user of steroids. Canseco and Grimsley were teammates on the 2000 New York Yankees.[28]

On December 30, 2007, it was announced that Canseco had reached a deal for his sequel to Juiced. The sequel is titled Vindicated, which hit bookstores by Opening Day 2008. This book has information on Alex Rodriguez, and Albert Belle as suggested by Canseco. The book was a "clarification" of names that should've been mentioned in the Mitchell Report.

Outside baseball

While still a high school player, Jose studied in an advanced program in association with the University of Miami and obtained an advanced degree in chemistry. Much of his research was focused on the effects of steroids on primates.

While still a player, he has guest starred on The Simpsons and Nash Bridges. Since his retirement, Canseco has appeared on Late Show with David Letterman, 60 Minutes, The Big Idea with Donny Deutsch, "Boomer and Carton", Howard Stern, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, CMI: The Chris Myers Interview, and Kathy Griffin: My Life on the D-List.

In May 2008, Philadelphia sportscaster and former NFL football player Vai Sikahema accepted a challenge from Canseco to fight him for $30,000. Canseco claims to have earned black belts in Kung Fu and Taekwondo, while Sikahema fought in the Golden Gloves tournament won by Sugar Ray Leonard. The fight took place on July 12 in Atlantic City at the Bernie Robbins stadium.[31] The 5 ft 9 in (1.75 m) Sikahema knocked out the 6 ft 4 in (1.93 m) Canseco in the first round.

On January 24, 2009, Canseco fought radio personality and former child actor Danny Bonaduce in Aston Township, Pennsylvania; the three-round match ended in a majority draw.[32][33]

Canseco claims to hold black belts in karate and taekwondo, and to practice Muay Thai, as well as describing himself as "an expert with nunchakus".[34] He made his mixed martial arts debut at Dream 9 on May 26, 2009, where he lost in the first round against 7 ft 2 in (2.18 m) kickboxer and occasional mixed martial artist Choi Hong-man as part of Dream's Super Hulk Tournament.[35][36]

On November 6, 2009, Canseco defeated Todd Poulton in a Celebrity Boxing Federation bout in Springfield, Massachusetts.[37] As of December 2010, he has launched a Twitter campaign in hopes of getting invited to Spring training by Mets GM Sandy Alderson.

In May 2013, Jose Canseco provided the foreword to the novel Air Force Gator 2: Scales of Justice by Dan Ryckert.[38] In it, he claims the book about the alcoholic alligator pilot is a "weakly veiled" metaphor for his own life. Cansenco fully supports the smash hit "Former Baseball Player Sucks At Crowdfunding: A Time Travel Adventure" and has been found on record stating "This book changed my life. After reading it I was a new man. Everyone should read this book."[39]
