King Kaufman seems to think that Canseco's new book is written by Steve Kettmann. Hmmm.
Salon.com News | King Kaufman's Sports Daily:
In fact, “Juiced” comes across as a kind of infomercial at times. “Look at me,” Canseco writes. “See me on TV, or in the newspaper, and you'll see that we do have choices in life about how we want to look and feel. If you don't mind turning forty and feeling worn down and powerless ... that's your choice. But if you want to head into your forties feeling strong and active, and looking as good as you ever have, the way I do, you can choose that too.”
“Juiced” is a compelling, quick, fun read. I suspect that by saying that I'm praising Steve Kettmann, a friend who covered the Bash Brothers-era A's for the San Francisco Chronicle, and who has written about steroids in baseball for the New York Times and Salon, among other publications. I asked Kettmann if he'd ghosted the book and he politely declined to comment.
I might read the book, for a dollar, or on some plane ride....
