Newsday is reporting that Roger Clemens (P) Hou has signed a one-year deal with the Astros. The deal is reportedly worth $3.5 million per month, which would add up to about $10.5 million, depending on when he returns to action. An announcement is expected as soon as today. Clemens, who went 13-8 with a 1.87 ERA last year, turns 44 in August.

He was always going to sign with them.

Why would he go anywhere else? Houston will let him pitch when he wants on the schedule he wants and its close to home.

Good sign for clemens and the astros.

Would have made a better story if he ended his career with the Sox.

I'll guarentee that the Astros will bring up Roger's son in September because of this.

Because you are pethetic!

Such a sad statement to say of yourself. No one would do anything for you, so commit suicide. :suicide:

Either that or he can still pitch without them and not embarrass himself.

Why would Sox fans even think there was a chance he'd sign with them, especially after how he was treated when he left.

Even Yankee fans knew there was no chance Clemens would leave Houston.

no bullshit, the Rocket better go 10-0 with that ERA he had last year and get their asses to the World Series again for all that bread he's getting.

Yeah, wouldn't it be funny that after all the fuss people through because of him, if Clemens had a losing record and Houston didn't make the playoffs. :D
