Of pitchers and Patriots

This Sunday we can finally get that Super Bowl thing over with and start talking about baseball. Spring training's just a few weeks away. Two quick hits this morning:

• I'm actually glad that Johan Santana has gone to the Mets, preferring to watch the Red Sox win (or lose) with the kids. As Tom Werner says, at least he's not going to the Yankees. And I know Pedro's near the end of his career, but can he handle not being the Man?
  
• Roger Clemens' protestations of innocence don't add up, but he's made them so vehemently that I had decided to suspend judgment. But if Andy Pettitte is ready to say Clemens used steroids and human growth hormone, it's lights out.

Oh, one other thing. Go Pats.
