Roger Clemens is in the stands watching the Red Sox do you think he will be with them or the Astros?

The Astros.  His son plays for them.  He lives near Houston.  And he has more freedom than any other player at Houston.

With Johnny Damon on the Yankees I think it will be them. Ouch for us Red Sox fans but good for NY.

The Red SOX (not socks, you uncommitted fan), are both pathetic and sad.  \nThey'll be lucky if anyone shows up to their games.

I think he has proved the devalue of a part time starter.  I suppose he has earned that right considering his incredible stature as maybe one of the 5 greatest pitchers ever to play the game.  But the reality is that any team competing for a world championship needs more.  A blue chip pitcher in his prime who can give a team 35  to 40 quality starts.  Frankly Clemens is not worth that kind of money anymore.\n\nHe needs to retire from the game, not the game retire from him.  And that my friend is just about to happen.  Cooperstown awaits and I for one will be there to honor his incredible career.

Clemens was not allowed to sign with Houston until May 1st.  Also, if Clemens was serving a suspension, he would have to serve it as an active member of his team.  \n\nUnless MLB has decided to violate its own rules, Clemens has not tested positive for a banned substance.

It will be a long road back to the fall classic for the Astros.  Here is why.\n\n1.  They will most likely have to win the division.  The wildcard is probably going to go to the NL East between the Mets, Phillies or Braves.\n2.  The Astros are 5 games behind in the division as of this writing.\n3.  The Astros are weak in hitting and have not had a consistent bat in the lineup other than Berkman.\n4.  Their starting pitching is suspect.  Petite has been like Jeckly and Hyde.  One start he flirts with a no hitter.  The next one he gets shelled.  Roy O. is on the DL and will probably not be back 100%.  The rest of the rotation is too young to make a great determination\n5.  The bullpen is suspect.  No one has been consistent from Qualls through Lidge.\n\nThe bottom line is there are too many question marks.  I hope they can put it all together and at least get in the tournament.  Once they are in anything can happen.

Clemens is "The Man"  he will know when he is ready to come back.  He will let the Astros know.  The guy is awesome.  All of the controversy will go out the door after his first couple of starts for the Astros.  Feel free to talk smack to all of your ney sayer friends.  Other than Nolan Ryan(who Clemens talks to about staying in shape) Roger is one of the greatest of all time and the Astros would be stupid not to keep him under contract until he is ready to retire.  \n  By the way Adam, Nolan Ryan threw his last no hitter at age 42.  Clemens has a lot left in the tank.  I'm not from Texas, don't care for Texas and will never go back to Texas but,  I know that Clemens has a bit more left than you give him credit for.

He was a Houston Astro, but is now a free agent. He said he was going to retire after the World Baseball Classic, but no one who says that they're going to retire really does retire. He can rejoin the Astros this season, though, after May 1, 2006.

First, to all of the Yankee fans, stay strong!!  our bullpen is shaky but the starting rotation to a good leap towards the end of last season.  also Damon's contribution to the team won't go un-noticed.  finally, with news of Sox pitcher Bronson Arroyo leavin' Bean-Town and Red's OF Mo Pena coming in, there is nowhere for the Yankees to go but up in the AL.  Can't wait till April baby!!!

On average, the Red Sox fans have the bigger passion/more dedicated fans.  I'm a Yankee fan, and although it is hard for me to write that - because there are many ridiculously dedicated and intelligent New York Yankee fans - but if you consider the amount of dedication per the average fan - the Red Sox have to win.  They are truly dedicated, and as a baseball fan I have to respect that.  That said, go Yanks and Bostonian's don't forget you spent the 2nd most amount of money last year - so don't call yourself a small market team!  You're champs now anyway, right?  Go Damon!

Yeah I think it makes it harder for the AL pitchers to get though an inning. Who would you rather face Ortiz or Clemens when it come to batting. I think you might be right cause the AL has been dominate over the years in pitching, Just ask Matt Clement who hasnt caught up to the AL STYLE in 3 years.

I like the RED SOX because everyone is always Yankees this and Yankees that. The Yankee's fans may have more bragging rights then the RED SOX because all of their world series championships but, the past is the past that is why it is called the past. And as of right now the RED SOX are ahead in the standings against the Yankees. Besides I never liked Derek Jeter or A-Rod. It's all about Big Papi and Manny Ramirez.

I live in northwest Washington, so am not particularly excited about the Mets coming to Boston, but last year when the Mets visited Seattle for the first time I was very excited (I'm a Mets fan) and was able to take in two of the three games.\n\nIncluding, incidentally, the first victory by the Seattle Mariners over Pedro Martinez.  :) :) :)\n\nNo problem with Sox fans cheering Pedro on but wanting to see the Sox win.  That is quite normal.
