Clemens signs with the Astros. The link is on MLB.com. The only thing different is that Clemens gets $14 million rather than $10 million.

Why would you want Kerry Wood? So he can join David Wells, and Matt Clement on the disabled list? Anyway, I'm assuming that Jim Hendry would want Adam Stern. He's another low-OBP speedster they can plug at the top of their lineup.

The first sentence was directed toward you, the rest was a general comment. Thanks for assuming I was actually responding to you.

Give it a rest. Why is everyone so worried about the Red Sox? Did you see Monday's lineup? That's probably the best lineup in the American League, save for the healthy Yankee lineup. Look at these numbers: .371, .369, .361, .431, .414, .372, .335, .429. Those are the OBP numbers for our first eight hitters. Granted, Gonzalez sucks, but he has a great glove. Which, by the way, the Red Sox have the best defense in baseball. Throw in the fact, that the Red Sox rotation will be better than it was shown these last few days. Schilling, Beckett, Wakefield, and Wells. That's a pretty good front four to run out their every week. Wells is still hurt, but you know he's going to give you league average innings out of the fourth spot, which is pretty valuable. Lester, and Hansen should be ready by August, which will give the Red Sox two more quality arms to add to the pitching staff. Basically, what I'm saying, we'll go through a rough stretch, all teams do. The difference is, that the Red Sox have the talent to stop long rough stretches. Come the trade deadline, the Red Sox will be up there. So will the Yankees and Blue Jays, but it should make for pretty damn interesting race, though.

Massive props for use of the word "jankees." Rivera - 3.0 IP 1 H 3 K's

You might enjoy reading those numbers in the "Rivera being Rivera" thread that were just posted. but it dont matter rivra suks lol fuk u jankee fan :dance:

Reverse psychology? That often works.

Clutch hitting is a myth.

Why do I get the annoying feeling that the Tigers will refuse to send Scott Erickson into retirement?

Who, the Blue Jays? Why?

Zumaya is sick.

Yup. A la Drew Rosenhaus, Dallas Cowboys.

How often are you wrong? I'm just curious.

Actually, basketball. :dance: OWNED!

He's signing with the Astros. I'm willing to bet Hendricks leaked that story in order to extract more from the Astros. $10 million? Not likely.

Jayson Stark has talked to Clemens' agent, who said that there is no deal yet. But, eventually it will happened.
