When Jose Canseco wrote "Juiced" in 2005, he brought the issue of steroids in Major League Baseball to the forefront. Now, Canseco has another book due this fall and he promises some juicy info on Alex Rodriguez.

Canseco told WEEI-Radio in Boston on Friday that he has "other stuff" on the Yankees slugger, who he called a "hypocrite" who "was not all he appeared to be."

When asked if A-Rod had used steroids, Canseco told WEEI, "Wait and see."

"Jose has information about A-Rod and the Yankees that will be in the book. But, I am not sure if Jose is willing to disclose it at this point," Canseco's lawyer, Robert O. Saunooke, told The New York Times.

Jose must be getting low on funds. I don't know if A-Rod has done anything against the rules, but at least he doesn't look like he has (ahem...Bonds). It seems like Canseco is just looking to make a buck off of a player who seems to be getting a fair amount of press these days.

I would tend to agree, but it all depends on what the "dirt is." If its an "ARod is an asshole" type thing then who cares, but if he claims Arod is juiced, thats a whole nother story

If he's intimating Rodriguez is juicing, then he would have put that in his FIRST book, not the second.
