Clemens (o) 6K's - 120.
my only concern is how many times Clemens will face a FLA P's. personally i think Pavano gets rocked (rocked early). so, i'm hoping for 1/2 AB's tops out of him. which equals 2K's. FLA castillo and gonzales are good for, at least, 2/3K's combined. and, i see the young cabrera and lee accounting for 1K each. with the slump lowell is in, that may be #7.
quite possibly the last time we see Clemens on the mound. if NYY gets a good lead early, and i think they will, Clemens should go, at least, 6 innings complete (although only averaging a little over 5 innings pitched the last 3 outings). last 5 road outings have averaged over 6. it will be hard for Torre to "hook" Clemens at any time tonight. i.e., BOS little and martinez...
the Rocket isn't blowing them away like he used too but, the adrenaline, the high fastball and "nervous" FLA bats should bring this one home.
GLTA!
