Anyone watch the show "Eastbound & Down"?

If so which real-life player would you say most closely resembles Kenny Powers? I'm gonna vote for either Jose Canseco (RHP - Oakland A's) or John Lackey (RHP - Angels / Red Sox).

And the reason being is that Jose Canseco is attempting a Kenny Powers-style comeback by playing in Mexican leagues with an effort to move back into American baseball. And then there's Lackey who won game 7 of a World Series, and has never returned to his former glory or pedestal, and has bottomed out after several shitty years and behind the scenes drama later.
