Clemens asks for record $22 million in arbitration
HOUSTON (AP) -- Roger Clemens asked for a salary that matches his uniform number -- with a bunch of zeros added on.
Clemens filed for a record $22 million in arbitration on Tuesday, and the Houston Astros offered the seven-time Cy Young Award winner $13.5 million.
The Rocket, who helped lead the Astros within one win of their first World Series last season, still has not decided whether to pitch this year or retire.
