Bank Strikes Out Jose Canseco's House

Posted May 2nd 2008 9:20AM by TMZ Staff

Retired baseball star Jose Canseco's 7,300 square foot $2.5 million Encino, California mansion has been foreclosed on. Maybe he should get a place with Latrell Sprewell.
Jose Conseco loses his house to foreclosure
In an interview this week, Canseco blamed his financial woes on a couple of divorces and the fact that after taxes, he was really only living on $17 or $18 million.

The slugger did admit that his financial situation is different than most Americans and that he felt sympathy for other families going through foreclosures -- with even fewer millions than he has.

34. Probably a smart financial move. With the recent drop in house prices (very dramatic in Cali), he could probably buy it back (or something 'better' - the house does look crap) for less than he owed.
