Henry Speaks

While this is not true yet John Henry, owner of the Red Sox, confirmed that the Sox will make a strong push for Clemens after he makes his decision on his future. Clemens agent has said all along that it remains a 3 team race, Yankees, Astros, and Red Sox. What a Clemens signing would mean for the rest of the pitching staff is still unclear, but it could mean a return of Wake to the pen and another year in AAA for Lester. It will probably take, in excess of, 20 million, which will be pro-rated for the amount of games he pitching, for half a year of service.
