MLB news: Canseco challenges McGwire to public polygraph test; FOX interested?

OK, so FOX hasn’t officially expressed interest, but it’s only a matter of time. Still claiming that he injected McGwire with steroids in bathroom stalls, Jose Canseco challenged Mark McGwire, who called him a liar, repeat his claim under a nationally televised polygraph test. He also lambasted Cardinals manager Tony La Russa for saying he only discovered Big Mac’s steroid use this week.

La Russa, of course, managed both McGwire and Canseco during Oakland’s glory days in the late 1980s.

What do we do with this one? Canseco speaks with such conviction about his steroid exploits. But he also plays beer league softball. And fights 7’2” guys in MMA. It’s tough to take him seriously.

It seems baseball’s first financial intervention has occurred. Major League Baseball and the Players Union teamed up to slam the Florida Marlins for never, ever spending any money. The Marlins stinginess has gotten so bad that the MLB began to wonder if Florida ownership was tucking its chunk of league-shared revenue under its mattress.

You’d think the Pirates had the same problem. But no – they probably lost the money. Or had it stolen at lunch time. Or gave it to Manatee College.
