Yahoo! Sports and the Denver Post are reporting that the Colorado Rockies are interested in signing free-agent P Matt Clement. Smart move?

Did not play in '07. In 2006 his ERA was 6.61 with a 5-5 record. If he is healed then he may work out for them. Won't really bother me to see his name off the roster.

i feel bad for the kid ...... took a ball in the face and has never been the same, obviously i cant imagine what thats like

i wish him the best anywhere he plays (other then the Yankees of course)

You just had to add that didn't you. You say something nice and then make a shot like that !!

I use to love to watch him play for the Cubs, but its true, once he got that ball to the grill, it was over with.

I don't know, The Rockies have good pitching, but no one who can really dominate a game. I suppose Matt Clement couldn't hurt.

Not smart for Clement. Any pitcher who goes to the Rockies has to either be desperate - or needs his head examined.

Did you watch them at all last season. You dont' go on the run they did without pitchers dominating games. Francis pitched great, and the kid Jimenez showed he is going to be an ace.

It isn't all that much of a difference anymore since they have been putting the balls in the humidor. It helps balance out the air in Colorado.
