Roger Clemens returns

Roger Clemens has decided to return to the Houston Astros to try to bring them a World Series Championship. The Rocket decided to return last week for a reported $12+ million for half a seasons work.

In my opinion the $12 million is money well spent. Not only does it bring a strong arm to the rotation, but he puts butts in the seats and sell merchandise.

The Astros are one of only a handful of teams who have never won a World Series. The signing of Roger couldn't have come at a better time. The Astros are struggling below .500 right now. With Pujols on the DL, now is the time for the Astros to climb back up.
