"So far so good," he said after his second minor league start since signing with the Yankees.
Clemens refused to say where his next start for the Yankees would be. He said he has told team officials how he feels, adding that an intense bullpen workout on Friday might be the deciding factor. He said his arm and legs both felt good.
"I felt the last three or four days when I backed off my routine to give my body a chance to catch up, I expected it to respond well, and it did," Clemens said.
