Lament for Clement

Not really. He is allowed a bad start now and then. image Do you Sox fans ever wonder where your team would be if you got Pavano instead and the Yankees got Clement? The season ain't over yet and maybe Clement will return to mediocracy and Pavano will pitch better. Hope springs eternal.

    Hey, I started your daily thread for you today!

    But, I don't think the Yanks ever wanted Clement. And, thank goodness for that. I know the Sox wanted Pavano, but luckily for us you threw a ton of money at him. The Yanks didn't notice Wade Miller either, instead, they fell over themselves to give obscene contracts to Wright, Pavano, and Johnson. This is already proven to be the undoing of your team, not just this season, but for the next several as well.

    Hmm who would the yanks rather have? The hope Pavano wasn't an overhyped one year wonder, or an all-star pitcher in Clement?

    clement seems to lose his release point as well as his confidence,as the season progresses to the dog days. most of us here in chicago know he is not very good in the second half of the season(as a matter of fact....HE STINKS). my guess is he will be lucky to win 13 games.

    And you really think that leiter is going to turn his season around and be the yankees' savior in the second half?

    What's not to think Clement wouldn't continue winning games? Just because he's been on bad teams before, doesn't mean the Sox won't support him.

    I think those Chicago fans who see him prospering in Boston are simply JEALOUS of the fact that Clement has gone to a team that cares about winning games, while their team and it's owners relish the role of loveable losers...know that they will make money whether or not they put a quality product on the field.

    Agreed - and yes, he is as good as his first half. Don't forget, he'll get massive run support as well in Boston, and without question, he is many times better than anyone the Yanks have currently, or could hope to buy for the stretch run.
