Clemens

The New York Times has reported that Clemens will miss his scheduled start on Monday due to a strained groin. He may miss up to two weeks.

I usually do not experience schadenfreude when a player is injured, but Clemens, of course, is a special case.

Incidentally, as I write this the Yankees are losing 3-1 to Boston while the Fenway fans serenade them with chants of "Yankees suck."

already?

This guy has thrown 3 games in the minors and ALREADY he's got the nagging injuries going? What on earth makes anyone think he can help a major league team? I think Joel Sherman had it right in the Post about how the Yankees should back out of this contract.

I also love how he pushed his debut back to Saturday against Pittsburgh, because as we all know, he who will save the Yankees season can only pitch at home against teams with AA lineups like the Pittsburgh Pirates. In a perfect world, he'll allow blasts to Bay, Nady, and LaRoche before departing with a pulled groin in the 2nd inning, having spotted Pittsburgh a 6-0 lead.

Driving the Oliver Perez bandwagon!
