yes but i believe it was the wrong team to go to!

if he wants to get back to the playoffs he shuld have gone to yankees, mets,

STL! chicago sox! but right now HOuston is barely alive!

if i was him i would not go to Houston! its probably his last season

and id rather make a run to the world seires for the last time !

tommy i believe his contract is prorated so its something like 12 million from now till the end of the yr...

mold...i agree there are better teams in better position to win a series than houston is, but for clemens his family is more important than the ring..he wants to compete, be near his family and have a chance to possibly play w his son who is in the houston organization
