It could be worse. He could turn into Chan Ho Park, where he ends up not that good over the course of his career but somehow gets people to pay him huge sums of money a year.
Here's a recap of how my Cardinals are doing (through saturday):
1) obviously-the tragic death of Josh Hancock
2) 11-17 ; last place-8 games behind the Brewers; 1-7 in their last 8 (outscored 51-10 in the process); lost 13-0 Sat. :o
3) only 2 starters hitting over .274 ; every other starter hitting under .260
4) starting pitchers: Looper (2.84 ERA), Anthony Reyes (5.46), Adam Wainwright (5.60), Kip Wells (6.59), Randy Keisler (5.65) (You know your team's in trouble when Braden Looper is your ace :eek: )
5) Chris Carpenter to have arthroscopic surgery on his elbow--out at least 3 months
This is going to be a loooooooooong season.

Maybe it's karma coming back from that World Series win last year.

Roger Clemens cashes out on the coming out of retirement for a huge one year payday tactic more than anybody I have ever known.

i would agree, but hulk hogan is a bigger offender. :1orglaugh
I didn't think Hogan made that kind of money, although I have no idea how much he was paid.
just another guy added to the long list of pitchers that David Ortiz can terrorize.
roger will break down fast

can you explain your theory since there is no recent examples to go on?
He is getting up there in age, but Clemens has been remarkable resistant to fatigue and injury in his career. I wouldn't be surprised to see age finally catch up to him. On the other hand I wouldn't be surprised if he pulled out a sub 2.00 ERA the rest of the season either.
That's a good way to look at it... but whoever heard of a rat jumping back on a sinking ship?

old clemens = waste of money for georgy
same clemens as before = bad news for the american league.
im hoping he does break down for the indians sake.
I wouldn't be surprised either way myself. Though, he has been pitching in the inferior hitting league the past couple years . Chances are at his age, they are gonna light him up like a Christmas tree in the real league. :2 cents:
I'm excited to see Roger back, but honestly his age scares the hell out of me. The skill is still there, but the body may not be. Any 45 year old is high risk for injury.
