RANDOM MUSINGS

Although I guess with a headline like that no one really needs to ask, right? I did not even feel disappointment when I heard the news….I literally just shrugged my shoulders and said “Figures.” Eh. Not a big deal. Even last year I could have cared less whether he was with the Astros or not. Yeah, it would be nice to have him. But the waiting game gets old. I cannot stand the “will he, wont he” game that he and his agent have put us, the Red Sox, and the Yankees through every year. And come on…once Pettitte decided to chase the money with the Yankes, it was pretty much a given that Clemens would follow. I was more glad to visit astros.com today and see the reactions of the players. They are over it, as well. Most agree that they need to win with the team they have, and one guy is not going to make or break the Astros this year. Now…the lack of hitting may break them….but not the loss of Clemens to the Yankees. One damn pitcher is not going to make that much difference if we keep stranding dozens of people on base. GO ASTROS. And good riddance.
