I don't know how much clearer I can make this. I don't care about investments. If we were going to get Vasquez (why?) or Buerhle, it would not at all be precluded by signing Clemens. He cost us money. No prospects or draft picks, just money. If we go and say we want to trade for Buerhle, Clemens does not stop us from doing that.
Our problems have stemmed from the fact that Damon, Abreu, Cano, Matsui, Cabrera, and 1st base cannot hit. If he gives up 4 runs per start we should still win.
