Canseco posts rant about PEDs on HOF announcement day

When the results of the 73rd Baseball Writers' Association of America Hall of Fame election are revealed Wednesday evening, the lives of the players whose names are called will change as they join the most exclusive club in baseball.

One player who never experienced the satisfaction of receiving the honor is Jose Canseco, who won an American League MVP, Rookie of the Year, and hit 462 home runs, but had his reputation tarnished by steroid use.

The 52-year-old also wrote a tell-all book titled "Juiced: Wild Times, Rampant 'Roids, Smash Hits, and How Baseball Got Big" in which he named several players who used steroids during their careers, and he dished out some anger on social media prior to the upcoming announcement.

Canseco went on to accuse people involved in the voting process of being corrupt, and even lashed out at former baseball commissioner Bud Selig with an indignant tweet about his involvement during the PED era.

Canseco then implied that Jeff Bagwell - who appears to have secured 88.3 percent of submitted votes, according to stats tracked by Ryan Thibodaux - was a steroid user despite what Tom Verducci of Sports Illustrated had to say.

One player Canseco appeared to be rooting for - in his own way - was former teammate Ivan Rodriguez, who he said should be inducted if Mike Piazza made it in.

This isn't the first time Canseco has made his feelings known about the Hall of Fame, and it surely won't be his last.
