Robinson Cano‘s 42 years old, but he’s adamant he could still be effective in the MLB … telling TMZ Sports he could “for sure” still get some knocks in the Big Leagues.
The former New York Yankees superstar hasn’t logged an official at-bat in The Show since the 2022 season, although when we asked him this week if he still believes he has pro juice left in him … he didn’t mince words.

“Oh,” he said with a smile. “For sure. For sure! Yes!”
Cano said he still feels strong … and, more importantly, he told us his legs haven’t given up on him yet.
“I believe that I can still play,” the ex-second baseman said.
Cano will have a few high-profile events in the next few weeks to show he’s not all talk … first up, he’s playing in Travis Scott‘s Cactus Jack Foundation HBCU Celebrity Softball Classic on Thursday in Houston — an event he won MVP at last year.
Then, he’s off to Dubai — where he’ll play for the Arabia Wolves against the Mid East Falcons in the Baseball United UAE Series.
Spring training opens up for most teams later this month … and if Cano impresses over the next few days — it sure seems he’d love it if a GM gave him a call about a potential tryout.
We also talked to the eight-time All-Star about two of his former teams — the Yankees and the Mets — and ya gotta hear what he thinks of his ex-squads now that Juan Soto‘s wearing new colors in the Big Apple.
