Astros Invite Clemens To Youth Camp

As an instructor.

Yeah, I know that when your big offseason acquisition is at the center of a media firestorm involving congressional testimony and illegal drug use, reminding people of the other people involved in that scandal you have past ties with is just good PR.

I have to say that that Astros are quickly becoming the most mystifying franchise in baseball. On one hand, they seem to be mortgaging the future for today, without somehow coming up with a today that favors them placing higher than fourth in the weakest division in baseball. On the other hand, they seem to be almost setting themselves up as a lightning rod of criticism for steroid usage that occurred on other teams. Just an amazing train wreck all the way down.
