Maddux Done After '08??

Doing my usual reading this morning, I came upon this article which quotes Maddux quite a few times alluding to the possibility that 2008 will be his last season.

If that's the case, I am just glad that we got a chance for 2 years to watch him pitch in a Padres uniform.  When I was a little kid, I used to HATE getting tickets in advance to Braves/Padres games, and then find out that he was pitching because I knew the Padres were gonna lose, and I knew the game was only going to last about 2 hours(tops).

Anyways, here's the article:

meh
if he has another good year, I think he will consider coming back for a 1 year 10M deal.  I also think that if he is close to passing clemens for wins he will take a shot at it.

Career Wins
Clemens has 354.

Maddux has 347.

I'm pretty sure, barring injury, he will pass him this season.

I'm sure he could do it.
As far as him caring about it enough to try- well, that's the part I doubt. I do think this will be just his penultimate season, though.
