Jose Canseco is a former player of the Major League Baseball. He was banned for usage of steroids. This former baseball player wrote a book “Juiced” in which he noticed that numerous players of the MLB took steroids.
Now Jose Canseco has been invited to play for the Tigres de Quintana Roo of Cancun. He has talked about his dreams to play in the MLB again. He has written on Twitter that Cancun is his following step towards the MLB.
This person has not played professional baseball since 2001 after he had played for the Chicago White Sox. This player was probably blackballed by baseball because of his statements connected with steroids and described in the book “Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant ‘Roids, Smash Hits & How Baseball Got Big”. He has identified himself as the “godfather” of steroids in baseball and took credit for introducing these substances in baseball. This person openly acknowledged in his book that he had taken anabolic steroids and other performance-enhancing drugs. The author of the book mentioned also names of other baseball players that took steroids. Such persons, as Mark McGwire, Juan Gonzalez, Rafael Palmeiro, Ivan Rodriguez, and Jason Giambi were named by Jose Canseco.
In spite of the fact that anabolic steroids may be purchased without any prescription at Mexican pharmacies, they are prohibited in MLB.
According to certain sources, Jose Canseco will be tested for forbidden medications by the Quintana Roo Tigers.
Jose Canseco claims that he has discontinued taking steroids several years ago. According to some sources, since stopping using steroids it had been recommended testosterone replacement therapy for him to cure certain problems related to low testosterone level.
The Cuban-American former baseball player said that he had had some unwanted symptoms because of administration of steroids. So, his doctor had to prescribe him a testosterone gel to relieve from reduced sex drive and depression.
While he put efforts to restore his natural testosterone production, he got some problems with laws. This person was detained for about 9 hours by the San Diego Immigration and Customs Enforcement after he had been caught possessing a vial of HCG at the international border. His house was raided by police officials but no any steroids were found.
However Jose Canseco will never escape from his steroid past, he put efforts to continue playing baseball professionally.
