Can you go home again? The Boston Red Sox will certainly leave a plate at the table if Roger Clemens decides he wants to finish where he started.

The Red Sox, where Clemens played his first 13 seasons, have contacted Clemens' agents, the Hendricks brothers, to express their interest in the future Hall of Famer, The Boston Globe reported.

When told of the Sox interest, Clemens, who was not offered arbitration by the Houston Astros, was said to have reacted positively, according to the paper.

"We had an internal discussion," Sox CEO and president Larry Lucchino told the paper, "and concluded we should make an initial call to let the Hendricks brothers know we were open to discuss Roger's return if he should have interest in the Red Sox in 2006.

"Nothing further."

Clemens, if he chooses, can re-sign with the Astros after May 1.

:wow:

:hi:

By the time the post-season comes around, he has little to offer. I think he should be proud of his career and call it a day.
