MIAMI — Former MLB player Jose Canseco says he's selling his detached digit on eBay.


The Canseco finger saga started in October when the Cuban-born, former Miami resident accidentally shot it off. Doctors reattached his finger, but apparently not well enough. Last Thursday while at a poker game, it fell off.


Canseco tweeted Monday night that he'd be selling the finger, along with the .45-caliber Remington gun that shot it off. Canseco hasn't listed the items for sale as of yet, and didn't mention a price.


"The eBay ad will read slightly used middle finger with 462 home runs could be used as a stirring straw for drinks," Canseco tweeted.


It's unclear how Canseco plans on listing both items for sale since eBay's selling policy forbids the sale of both firearms and body parts.

Canseco's finger falling off apparently was a bad prank

It turns out the recent story about Jose Canseco's finger falling off was just a prank orchestrated by the former slugger.

Jose Canseco is a prankster.

After shooting his middle finger off and having it reattached, the former MLB slugger said it fell off again during a poker tournament. He then expressed interest in selling the detached finger on eBay.

It turns out the finger never actually fell off, according to TMZ Sports, and it was just one big hoax pulled off by Canseco.

He told TMZ Sports that he came up with the idea of using the extremely bizarre prank when he saw a fake finger in a Halloween store.

It remains unclear which Canseco moment is more strange: The finger incident, or his random Twitter rant about space.
