Jose Canseco may have lost a finger because of his little gun accident, but like the true capitalist he is, Canseco is looking to make some money off the unfortunate incident.
Canseco tweeted on Monday that he plans to sell his finger and the gun that shot off the digit.
As of now, Canseco is unsure whether the precious items will be sold as a package deal, but he is considering the possibility.

You really have to appreciate Canseco’s humor over the whole matter. From Canseco describing his old appendage as a “used middle finger with 462 home runs” to him suggesting it be used to stir drinks, the guy had me laughing.
Seriously though, that’s not a bad thing to buy. Say you’re a sports memorabilia collector, how can you pass on something like that? It’s truly one of a kind, and what better represents the incompetence of one of the top ballplayers of the ’80s and ’90s?
