Clemens better earn his money!! There is a whole lot of hype in Houston over him and his son playing together in the minors. It is nuts!! The team seems to be more motivated with him playing. I am an avid Astros fan. I feel he better EARN his money and not just create hype that I am quite sick of. He is being payed to pitch. I will be very disappointed if he does not win a lot of games! I think he HAS to be worth the money!

He's going to cost the average Astros fan $6 per game ticket this season. I mean next season, when ticket prices go up.
The Astros are a .500 team with little chance of moving up or down based on the 10 or so wins Clemens will give them in the second half. But they will sell a lot of jerseys in the team shop.

It comes down to whether the Astros sell more tickets. He won't put them in the playoffs but he may bring in more revenue than he costs.
My guess is that they will sell enough extra tickets to pay for his salary.

He is overpaid. Talk about a guy who can't walk away from the game gracefully. That is really sad.
