Roger Clemens Bidding War

With Roger Clemens still pondering his upcoming season, he has started a bidding war between the Astros, Red Sox, Yankees, and Rangers. As of now, the Astros have offered up a high offer. If you are Roger Clemens, this bidding war means one thing, PAYDAY. For these four teams, it means a couple of things, big spending and a great pitcher which could equal a successful season. However, for these teams is it really worth it? Obviously their goals are winning first, and turning a profit second. For these teams, is this really the way to go about their seasons and managing their teams. This would drive his payrolls through the roofs, and possibly also drive attendance and other revenues throught he roof as well. So, with one player not promising a title, is it really worth it to pay all this money for an old pitcher?
