ACQUIRED BEFORE THE 2013 SEASON FROM HOMESTEAD FOR THEN YOUNGSTERS GARRIT COLE AND MANNNY MACHADO, CLAYTON CAME ON BOARD AND IMMEDIATELY ANCHORED THE FLORIDA STAFF FOR 13 SEASONS LEADING THE "EMPIRE" TO 6 OF THIER WORLD TITLES ! THIS INCLUDED 3 GAME SEVEN WINS IN THE WORLD SERIES PLAY NOTABLY THE 22 AND 23 EPIC CLASHES BETWEEN THE HEADHUNTERS AND CARCOSAS IN WHICH CLAYON FACED LOUISIANA ACE FRAMBER VALDEZ IN BOTH GAME 7'S BESTING HIM IN WHAT CAN ONLY BE CALLED 2 OF THE MOST CLASSIC SERIES EVER PLAYED.
IN A LONG PLANED MOVE AND WITH GREAT JOY AS WELL AS SADNESS WE ALSO CONFIRM THE RETIREMENT OF LONG TIME FLORIDA PITCHING COACH AND PLAYER RODGER CLEMENS . RODGER AN ORIGINAL IN THE 1994 LEAGUE STARTING DRAFT, RODGER HAS SPENT HIS ENTIRE CJIBL CAREER IN SOUTH FLORIDA AS PLAYER AND COACH, NEVER THROWING A PITCH FOR ANOTHER CLUB. HE HAS A TOTAL OF 10 WORLD SERIES RINGS WITH 4 COMING FROM THE MOUND AND 6 AS A PITCHING COACH. WE WISH THE BEST FOR RODGER AND HIS FAMILY AS HE MOVES ON TO THE NEXT PHASE OF HS LIFE.
AND OF COURSE AS STATED IN A LONG PLANED MOVE HE WILL BE REPLACED WITH NONE OTHER THAN CLAYTON KERSHAW ON A LIFE TIME SERVICES CONTRACT TO MENTOR AND GUIDE THE NEXT GREAT WAVE OF HEADHUNTER ARMS !
CONGRATULATIONS TO BOTH RODGER AND CLAYTON
PLEASE REMOVE CLAYTON KERSHAW FROM THE FLORIDA HEADHUNTERS ROSTER
