On the heels of Jim Souhan's column on Jose Canseco and how he should play for the St. Paul Saints -- Souhan interviewed him in Texas -- Canseco has taken up actively lobbying for a job with the Saints via Twitter. You can follow his whole stream here.

We don't want to let the rest of the league know which players we are speaking to at this time, so I can't comment on whether we're considering Mr. Canseco or not."
