An article was published by ESPN stating that the Yankees would need Roger
Clemens' permission to be traded. If the Yankees are way out of it and
Roger Clemens demands a trade, would the Yankees even consider trading
Clemens to the Red Sox? I would think that the pride of the Yankees would
get in the way of trading Clemens, especially to the Red Sox, but if the
Yankees are so far out of it, perhaps it would make sense to trade Clemens
to SOMEBODY for SOMETHING as to not pay for all of that large contract.

George would rather eat the 25 mil, if it would mean helping the Sox. And
what makes you think the Red Sox would have interest in Rocket for 25 mil
anyway?

I think that George might see it as a prudent business move if he's
willing to give up on the season. But the only way the Sox go for it
is if they suffer some key injuries.
