A team spokesman for the <em>Tigres de Quintana Roo</em> said the 47-year-old Cuban-American was not given a contract after he admitted to using performance-enhancing drugs.<br /><br />Canseco, a slugger known for mammoth homeruns, once thrilled Oakland fans when he played for the Athletics, and later when he played for the Texas Rangers. Drug-use hounded the last years of his MLB career, which was followed by crazy, publicity stints as a boxer, a wrestler and a string of player-manager jobs with a series of insignificant minor league ballclubs. Last year, he managed a North American Baseball League team in Yuma, Arizona.<br /><br />Here, fans saw him perform at Harlingen Field against The Rio Grande Valley WhiteWings, visits the local club promoted as if promoting a clean ballplayer. To reputable sportswriters, Canseco has been dirt for years.<br /><br />Rumors are circulating that the WhiteWings may try and sign him as a way to boost the club's recent sagging attendance. That would be a bad move...<br /><br /><div align="center"><strong><span style="font-size:85%;">- 30 -</span></strong></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/8418586410607151775-8494873495664117217?l=thepazfiles.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>
