Clement is the classic case of a player who has "great stuff". Every GM in baseball thinks that if they sign these guys, they will be a Cy Young winner for their team. There is a reason that these pitchers make it into free agency. It's because they can't translate their "great stuff" into success.
That being said, I hope to see Clement pitching for the Sox this year. But only in a mop-up situation after the Sox have clinched the division.
