Former six-time MLB All Star Jose Canseco is trying out with the Quintana Roo Tigers of the Mexican League, the team announced Sunday.

Canseco also broke the news on his Twitter account Sunday saying, "Back in baseball I knew I would play this year you just gotta believe in your dreams. Leave on redeye tonite to start spring training with AAA quintana roo tigers tomorrow. Team won the league championship last year."
Tigers president Cuauhtemoc Rodriguez said Canseco hasn't signed a contract.
The 47-year-old Canseco played for seven teams in his 17-year career and hit 462 home runs.

He admitted to using steroids in 2005 and last played in the majors for the Chicago White Sox in 2001.
