Clemens to return to the Yankees

For $4.5 million per month!

The Yankees badly need the pitching, and they have decided to pay dearly to get Clemens. I have always been a fan of Clemens, but for some reason, I'd like to see the Yankees go ahead and turn around the season, maybe make the wild card with the Red Sox winning the division. Then, of course, it would come down to the Yankees and the Red Sox again for a trip to the series. I'd love to see the Red Sox win it in 7, maybe beating Clemens in the decisive game.

Cade's Double Play vs White Sox

Cade's Double Play vs White Sox
Originally uploaded by steveshissler.

Cade turned an unnassisted double play against the White Sox. This was on the same day as major league rookie Troy Tulowitzki turned an unnassisted triple play - click here for the story on mlb.com.

There were runners on 1st and 2nd, Cade caught a line drive headed towards 2nd base. He turned to tag the runner who was on 2nd, but he got back on the base. Then, he looked up and the runner from 1st was not tagging up and he was almost to 2nd base. Cade quickly ran him down for the 2nd out.

Thanks to April Messick for the picture.
