Some dreams never die. And for as crazy as Jose Canseco is, at least give him credit for not quitting:
The Worcester Tornadoes today signed former Major League Outfielder & Designated Hitter Jose Canseco to a one season contract. The native Cuban spent parts of 17 seasons in the majors, mashing 462 homeruns ... Team owner, Todd Breighner, says “We’re very optimistic Jose will be a very solid ball player for the Tornadoes as our goal is to continue to bring high-level baseball to Worcester.
Worcester is part of the independent Can-Am league -- which used to sorta be the Northeast League -- which is probably the equivalent of A-ball.
I predict Canseco will hit several home runs, post a pretty low average and then part ways with the team after, oh, 30 games or so for reasons that are not at all clear to anyone other than Jose Canseco.
