Roger Clemens, Houston Astro?

Posted by: Bradley McDonald

Astros Demolish Cardinals
In a dazzling display of unmatched courage and superior skill, the Astros defeated the Cardinals tonight, 6-3! The game proved that the team from Houston plays at a level immeasurably higher than the alleged baseball players of St. Louis.

Heh heh. I say this only to provoke the St. Louis fan(s) that lurk around this place. I will be the first to admit that the Cardinals have been playing superior baseball, especially lately, as the Astros have been quite horrid over the last 25 games, winning only 8 of them. That ghastly losing streak has put the 'Stros 6.5 games behind St. Louis for the NL Central lead.

Rocket Launch?
Rumors were flying around today that Roger Clemens decided to don the spikes once again for Houston, but the men in charge for the Astros say that a deal has not yet been struck. I'm hoping that the old "where there's smoke there's fire" cliche is true and something is indeed being set up.

The Astros could sure use some pitching help, since the young guns that started off the season on fire have cooled considerably. The 88 year old Clemens would be welcome, despite his age. He proved last year that old men can still throw the ball.

$12 million for half a season! What a valuable arm that guy has!
