My Take
Clemens, the Rocket, was the embodiment of pitching as intimidation, overpowering hitters with sheer velocity and competitive fury across an extraordinary 24-year career. From Boston to New York, his Cy Young awards and MVP put him among the greatest pitchers ever to throw a baseball. His later years were clouded by controversy that complicates his legacy, and I won't pretend otherwise. But what no one can dispute is the ferocity he brought to the mound every single start. As a matter of pure craft and will to win, I find his relentless competitiveness genuinely admirable.
