Problems with Canseco's "Vindicated"

From Christian Red of the NY Daily News:

Jose Canseco's sequel to his 2005 best-seller "Juiced" has hit its first snag.

As the Daily News first reported last weekend, former Bash Brother Canseco has finalized a deal to publish "Vindicated" with Penguin Books, with a planned release date to coincide with Opening Day. But former Sports Illustrated associate editor Don Yaeger, who was scheduled to collaborate with Canseco on the book, has passed on the project. Yaeger said Friday that Canseco does not have the goods on Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez that Canseco alluded to in media interviews last month.

"I'm passing," Yaeger told the Daily News. "I had a chance to review the Jose Canseco (material) that he provided me. I don't think there's a book there. I don't know what they're going to do. I don't think he's got what he claims to have, certainly doesn't have what he claims to have on A-Rod.

"There's no meat on the bones."

Robert Saunooke, Canseco's attorney, told the News that the plans to publish "Vindicated" are still going forward, with or without Yaeger.

This tells me the book won't have anything earth-shattering on A-Rod or any other prominent players in it. In other words the book is going to be pointless. Probably just another book about how ball players are wild men off the field, big deal, everyone already knows this.
