Talk:Rumor: Astros offer Clemens $12 Mil/@comment-101836-20060503103357

Yeah, I expected Houston to exceed everyone&quot;s expectations this season, but I didn&quot;t think they&quot;d get a start like this. Especially considering the way their pitching staff looked at the beginning of the season. I wouldn&quot;t have guess they&quot;d be 6th in the MLB in ERA, and last I checked their starting rotation had the best ERA in the MLB. Considering how little experience their rotation has (outside of Oswalt and Pettitte), that&quot;s pretty amazing.
