Pride comes before the fall, they say, and even being an AL Rookie of the Year, AL MVP award and two World Series rings doesn't change things. Former Oakland A and over-‘roided baseball superstar, Jose Canseco, is releasing yet another tome about life in the fast-broke-entitled-and-slightly-mentally-challenged lane. “Vindicated” is the follow up to his 2005 opus “Juiced”, which described more about his reckless and abusive lifestyle than the steroid-tinged baseball career he was most known for.

“Vindicated” promises to deliver more, ahem, juicy info about illegal substance abuse in the MLB, including callouts of Roger Clemens, Detriot Tigers Outfielder Magglio Ordonez, and the once-hated-now-heralded-by-Yankees-fans golden boy Alex Rodriguez. The tag line reads: "Big Names, Big Liars and The Battle to Save Baseball".

The Battle to Save Baseball?

Maybe everything he writes is true, but given Canseco’s reputation, one has to question his motives. Or better yet – just call them out: his fifteen minutes of fame are up and he needs the money. Why else would rat out your friends? His reputation has far exceeded him. Short of dedicating his life to the homeless, opening an old folks home or finding a cure for AIDS, Jose Canseco will be remembered not for his post-season average or slugging percentage, but for heralding his own bad behavior and selling out his friends to save his own neck.

Enjoy the time working on your next novel, Mr. Conseco. You’ll have plenty of alone time to write it.
