Canseco Collector

My name is Christopher Larson I was born in Bradenton FL. in 1979 I currently reside in Arizona. I been around sports all my life!  I been collecting Baseball cards since I was kid. 

It all started when my father bought me an 87 Topps baseball card set from there I was hooked! I did not exactly know who the players were at that time but I  remember the two standout players in that set in my eyes were Jose Canseco and Bo Jackson they quickly became my two favorite players pretty much my whole time collecting! I Pretty much have been collecting those two players and a few others ever since on and off of course  I missed half the 90's and started back up in 2007 so I am very behind on my Jose Canseco and Bo Jackson collecting however since I been back I have accumulated a need to collect Ozzie Canseco as well I currently possess 26 different Ozzie cards

I am actively seeking them out!

Thank you for taking a look at my site!

ose Canseco Capas Jr. (born July 2, 1964) was a Major League Baseball player. He was born in Havana, Cuba, and is the twin brother of another major league baseball player, Ozzie Canseco. His family left Cuba when he and his brother were infants, and he grew up in Miami.

Canseco did not attend college on a baseball scholarship. He was signed by the Oakland Athletics and began playing in 1986, causing a splash immediately. He was named American League Rookie of the Year after connecting 33 home-runs that year. In 1987, he was joined in the team by Mark McGwire, who hit 49 home-runs that year, and they became known as the Bash Brothers. In 1988, Canseco became the first player in Major League Baseball's history to hit at least 42 home-runs and steal 40 bases in the same year. That year, he helped the Athletics to the World Series but they lost to the Los Angeles Dodgers in five games. Canseco was named the American League's Most Valuable Player that year.

In 1989, Canseco was injured most of the year, but he still managed to hit 17 home-runs, and the Athletics won their first World Series since 1974, when they beat the San Francisco Giants in four games. Canseco experienced the infamous 1989 San Francisco earthquake before the start of game 3 of that series.

In 1990, Canseco came back in full strength, hitting 44 home-runs and taking the A's to the World Series once again, but that time, it was his team that got swept, when they lost to the Cincinnati Reds in four games.

Canseco's career seemed to take a downward spiral from there on. In 1992, he was traded to the Texas Rangers. He would later be traded to or signed by several other teams, and his offensive numbers dropped considerably.

In 1993, Canseco received unwanted attention when, during a game, he lost a fly ball in the lights and was hit in the head. The ball then jumped off the wall and out of the baseball field and was declared a home-run. That same season, Canseco suffered further indignity when he asked to pitch during a runaway loss; he injured his arm and was lost for the remainder of the season.

Canseco ran into trouble in his personal life various times. In 1989, his wife accused him of domestic violence after he allegedly ran his car into hers. That was the beginning of a series of accusations and run ins with the law that Canseco had.

Canseco retired in May 2002 after a string of injury-filled seasons. His 462 career home runs rank him 26th on the career list.

Osvaldo "Ozzie" Canseco Capas (born July 2, 1964 in Havana, Cuba) is a former Major League Baseball player and the identical twin brother of former Major League Baseball player José Canseco. He has stated on several occasions that he models his batting stance after that of Jack Tripper from Three's Company.

Ozzie Canseco had a brief major league career, playing in 24 career games with the Oakland Athletics and St. Louis Cardinals between 1990 and 1993. In between, in 1991, he played in Japan for the Kintetsu Buffaloes.

Canseco was drafted as a pitcher by the New York Yankees in the second round of the 1983 Major League Baseball Draft. In stark contrast to the prolific, power hitting career of his twin brother, Ozzie never hit a major league home run.

Canseco appeared on an episode of VH1's The Surreal Life (Season 5) as a José Canseco impersonator. At the end of the program, it was revealed that he was José's twin brother. He has also reportedly appeared at baseball card shows and book signings passing himself off as his brother.

Canseco currently holds the Atlantic League single season home run record with 48, and he played 3 seasons in the Northern League, two with the Schaumburg Flyers. In 1991 Canseco signed a one-year contract with the Kintetsu Buffaloes of the Japanese Pacific League.^[1]
