Canseco's home foreclosed

LOS ANGELES -- Jose Canseco, the former AL MVP who made millions during his major-league career and has written two books on steroids abuse in baseball, has had his home foreclosed.

Canseco told the syndicated TV show "Inside Edition" that he walked away from his $2.5 million, 7,300-square foot home in suburban Encino because it didn't make sense to continue making payments.

"I do have a judgment on my home, and it to me is very strange because it didn't make financial sense for me to keep paying a mortgage on a home that was basically owned by someone else," he said in an interview that aired Thursday.

"What about other families that we're hearing on TV, that they're saying, 'We have nowhere else to go,' " he said. "I mean, that is amazing. I've got books (he's put out two exposé-type books on drug use in baseball), we're now trying to produce the movie to both."
