Derek Jeter and Al Leiter, who played with Clemens on Team USA, said they talked to him about rejoining the Yankees. Jeter, for one, says he is convinced Clemens will not retire.

"If you ask me, I think he's going to keep pitching, but it has nothing to do with any conversation we had," Jeter said. "He pitched well. I don't think he's getting any worse. It looks like he's improving, and being like he's always been. Having seen that, I don't see him retiring.

"You never know, but make sure you write that it had nothing to do with anything he told me."
