22 Million does seem like a bit much, but still Clemens is a great pitcher (one of the greatest of all-time) and is hardly washed up. After having an 18-4 W-L record with a 2.98 ERA and a Cy Young Award last year, I can't say that he isn't worth at least 15 million if he has another season like that next year.
IF he's willing to work for $15m, there are quite a few teams willing to ante up -- I suspect even Houston.
I thought it odd that he said he left the Yankees to be with his "family" before last year, and here he is...willing to be away from the family at a price.
And speaking of "prices," the phony oughta give back all the gifts Steinbrenner gave him upon his "retirement" as a Yankee.
P.S. -- He STILL has problems winning the "Big One."
