    FROM THE A-P...

    Roger Clemens is asking for a record 22 million dollars in arbitration. The Houston Astros are offering 13 and a-half million.

    Wasn't he retired? What is he thinking?

    Yep, that is kinda crazy. I know he is good, but he is on the edge of going nowhere but downhill. Just not sure how many more years players like him, RJ and so forth can eek out before they go downhill.

    I think it was 4 or 5 million, but I'm sure he made more with bonuses for playoffs games or whatever.

    It looks to me like he has a shitty agent who didn't insert the right incentive clauses for him.
