Sox statement

The Red Sox today released the following statement in response to Roger Clemens signing with the Yankees:

We offered a substantial salary and suggested, for health purposes, that Clemens return on approximately the same timetable as last year. Today we learned from Randy that Clemens has signed elsewhere.”
