Big Contract Could Mean Clemens Ends Up in New York or Boston?
Just caught an interesting piece by Joel Sherman of the New York Post:
THERE are certain signs that you have been at one job too long. Here’s mine: Roger Clemens signs a pitchers’ record $18 million contract yesterday with the Astros and the first thought is not “Good for him,” or “Good for Houston,” or even “Wow.” The first thought is a contract like that means Roger Clemens is going to end the 2005 season as either a Yankee or a Red Sox.
A more serious consideration of a new job would have been necessary, except an AL executive said this yesterday: “If the Astros are a non-contender in July, I would put it at 80 percent that Clemens would be a Yankee or a Red Sox. The reality is those are the only two places he would consider going.”
Seems like just something fun to talk about, at this point, but I sure wouldn’t mind it, assuming the price was right.
Is this worth sharing?

All the Yanks need is to have Clemens end up in Boston with that cry baby Curt.
