Red Sox Hub Trade Rumor Central
#21 Will Sign With The Red Sox For $1 million plus incentives
No, Not the Rocket, but Sammy So-so
Is this the end of the line for Sammy Sosa? A report, citing an unnamed source, said Sosa is seriously considering retirement from baseball instead of accepting an offer from the Nationals. The Nationals have offered Sosa a non-guaranteed, one-year deal for $500,000. Washington's offer is the only one Sosa has received this winter. "He feels that the lack of interest in his services constitutes a humiliation," the source said.

Rocket agent Randy Hendricks Roger Clemens said yesterday that Clemens was more likely to retire than continue pitching after the World Baseball Classic next month. "I continue to say that nothing will be decided until after the World Baseball Classic," the agent, Randy Hendricks, said in an e-mail message. "It is a five-horse race between Retirement, Boston, Houston (post May 1), New York, and Texas (alphabetical order except for the lead horse, named Retirement)."
