Even Ricky Henderson is going to be there this weekend to pick up his championship ring from last season.

Are you sure you got the right link? That was just about an ECHL team folding.

Here's the AP article: http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news;_ylt=AvcYoU8iOzYK.OirzAXgvA4RvLYF?slug=ap-canseco-surfdawgs&prov=ap&type=lgns

This is hilarious!Jose Canseco accused several top players of steroid use, once had a ball bounce off his head and go over the fence for a home run, and blew out his elbow in his only big league pitching appearance.

Now's he's back in baseball, having agreed to a contract with the independent San Diego Surf Dawgs. He's planning to be their designated hitter and -- get this -- pitch.

I went and saw Superman Returns last night and I won five free vouchers to see Canseco's team play this season. I've got to see him pitch. I'll let you all know how he plays.

and canseco has already requested a trade....

Canseco seeks trade from Surf Dawgs

He wants to play for the Long Beach Armada because of family obligations.

LOS ANGELES – Jose Canseco, making his professional return to baseball, has asked to be traded from the minor league San Diego Surf Dawgs after playing one game.

Golden Baseball League commissioner Kevin Outcalt said today that negotiations were expected to be completed soon that would send the former Major League All-Star to the Long Beach Armada.

Canseco asked to be traded because his daughter will be spending the rest of the summer living with him, and he will need to be in the Los Angeles area more than he anticipated, Outcalt said.

For those keeping track, Canseco took the mound lastnight and gave up 4 runs in 1/3rd of an inning.

I saw a clip of him working on his knuckleball, my daughter throws harder than that. I'm not kidding, a big fat 50 mph meatball.
He should hook up with Eric Estrada and try selling land to saavy investors on those Saturday infomercials.
