Did Roger Clemens deserve a trade back to the Red Sox?
I live in Houston. We all know how involved Roger is with his kids here, and what his contract allows (not going with the team on away games). By no means is Houston out of it, but the future does look bleek. He has got it made here. Why in the hell would anyone even think about going anywhere else? His son plays in the Astros organization. He has regular access to the ballpark, his wife is very involved with the community, has her own retail store here, the rest of his boys play at a very renown and competitive baseball complex relatively close to the house which he frequents quite often. This guy has it made. The town loves him pass or fail. And.......he is winding down his career. . I think that two guys (Clemens and Mclane) made a commitment and they are sticking to it.Despite what you read from Jason Stark.
