Clemens was dinged up Saturday, giving up six earned runs on seven hits and two walks over 1.2 innings in Triple-A New Orleans 11-8 loss to Omaha.
Clemens compiled a 4.05 ERA over 6.2 innings this spring as well as limiting opposing batters to a .130 average. Last year, the 28-year-old bounced between High-A, Double-A, and Triple-A and compiled a 5.73 ERA over 48.2 innings of work. The righty also holds a rather blemished 4.67 ERA over 659.1 career innings at the minor league level. He'll need to produce an ERA lower than that with Triple-A New Orleans this year if he hopes to receive a call up to the big leagues sometime in 2016.
