A supposed Astros signing and playing of Clemens isn't necessarily about an effective comeback or giving the Astros a better chance of winning a September game. Instead it would be about butts in the seats, whether they be Clemens fans or hecklers.

So say I who brought a Village People album in exchange for a seat at the Disco Demolition night at Old Comiskey. Baseball is entertainment.

I would love to see Clemens make a start with the Astros.

I would then love to see the consecutive HR record broken.


Seriously, if he really can hit 87 consistently, he would probably make a better than average reliever. I would say closer, but it's Houston we're talking about.
