He is in George's box, and Suzyn just said he is now a Yankee. A total surprise. He came on the screen and said "Thank you. They came and got me from Texas, I will see you all soon."
Clemens Returns To Pinstripes Just announced to the crowd at Yankee stadium. Can't wait to see the deal.
Yea, I just heard. That's amazing. Imagine that rotation come July: 1. Clemens 2. Wang 3. Pettitte 4. Mussina 5. Hughes
WOW....imagine the playoffs, imagine what happens if we actually have a rotation when it comes time to win in the playoffs....we might actually have a chance
I'll go with Monday, June 4 vs the White Sox. I don't think he's going to want to start off with a game in Boston.
It's only money. Cashman wanted to save it, obviously George doesn't care, nor should he. He still makes plenty no matter what he spends.
NEW YORK (AP) -- Roger Clemens returned to the New York Yankees, making a dramatic announcement to fans from the owner's box during Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners. At the end of the seventh-inning stretch, Yankees public address announcer Bob Sheppard told fans to turn their attention to the box, where Clemens was standing with a microphone. As the video scoreboard in right-center televised Clemens, the seven-time Cy Young Award winner made the announcement himself. "It's a privilege to be back," he said. Clemens agreed to a minor league contract and most likely will join the Yankees after several weeks getting into shape. http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/baseball/mlb/05/06/bc.clemens.yankees.ap/index.html The Yankee fans in my family are going nutz! They love this guy. And what's a minor league contract worth?
millions of dollars for a 45 year old guy who cant do his full steroid regimen anymore cause of the testing. good luck with that.
Bottomline is Clemens makes the Yankees a better team and is a step towards #27. Wang, Moose, Pettite, Clemens, Hugheshmy: . Were not asking him to be our savior. Im loving the vibes that im getting from the Yankees haters
