That rotation would have been unreal. Nothing like having a future first ballot HOF as your 4th starter.
I agree with the rest of your post - the NL and especially the central would have allowed Clemens a better shot not only at the post season but also the World Series. I guess it comes down to money and the chance to win another one with the Yankees.
That being said, I think the better move, and the better story line, would have been for Clemens to go full circle and win the series with the Red Sox.
