Why would the Astros put Clemens on waivers? He doesn't make that much money and he puts fans in the seats for them. Plus, Clemens hates the Red Sox and has said he wouldn't go back there. If the Astros were going to unload him they should have done it before the July 31st trade deadline this way they could have gotten something back in return for him. I'm sure the Yankees would have scooped him up!
Roger would not have played for the Yanks again....
Before the trade deadline the astros were in contention this is the reason they did not trade roger.

And the astros put roger on waivers for a reason...they diddnt trade him before because andy pettite was still healthy. Pettite is out for the season with an elbow injury. The astros are out of contention...So they figure they will try to get something for roger scince they cant do much anymore with him for the last six weeks...why not get a prospect or two...

Did you get all that...
