Sheen Just a Bit Outside

Former "Two and A Half Men" star Charlie Sheen has delivered plenty of hits via Twitter and YouTube during the past few months. This week, the actor joined Georgia Tech's baseball practice in Atlanta, taking some ground balls, shagging a few flies and driving about a half-dozen balls to the Russ Chandler Stadium warning track. Afterward, he received treatment from Yellow Jackets trainer Walt Smith for his "dead ulnar tendon" in what Sheen later tweeted as an "epic day at the yard." Sheen's film credits include two turns as pitcher Rick 'Wild Thing' Vaughn in the "Major League" movies, so maybe he does know something about "duh... winning."

Do You Know the Way, Jose?

The North American League's Yuma Scorpions today announced that Jose Canseco, 46, will join the team as player/manager in the coming season, suiting up alongside his twin brother, Ozzie, who serves as a player/coach. Canseco is anxious to manage a club in professional baseball and begin the career transition of helping younger players and giving back to the game. The twins are penciled in to bat third and fourth in the Scorpions' lineup, with Jose expected to play first base and designated hitter. The independent league launches its inaugural season May 24, but has no affiliation with major league baseball. Team drills are expected to include sessions on testifying to Congress, creative writing, celebrity boxing and using your head in pressure situations.
