Baseball Rumor News

MLB.com has an interesting story concerning the possible future of Roger Clemens. The owner of the Astros has not ruled out Clemens returning to pitch this season. It seems more that Clemens is waiting out the storm brought on by all his legal trouble.

“That doesn’t mean he’s going to pitch, he’s just undetermined and wants to see where all this is going,” McLane said.

The Astros could use additional starting pitching, as would Clemens’ other team of choice, the Yankees. The question is, would he actually bring any positives to a team that hires him on late in the season for a playoff push. Keep in mind that he was fully ineffective with the Yankees his last time out and definitely didn’t earn his paycheck. My thinking is that once all the legal issues are over, Clemens will be physically unable to Pitch in the majors.
