Schilling is resigned

[Gibson486]

8 Million a year is the news that is going on during the news. Kind of expensive for a pitcher that will probably not win more than 14 games. I hope he proves me wrong.

how many years? its not that bad hes a great pitcher and still has it in him, and if needed he could be amazing pitching from the bullpen

say leister or Dice-k gives you 6 and then you bring schilling in :Q

 

[Al Neri]

Schilling is worth every penny if u can sign him short term.

It's a great move for the Sox. They're getting a guy who is committed to winning, who's a stud in the postseason, and they're adding depth at baseball's most important position - pitching. Not to mention Schilling has an incredibly positive impact on the younger guys in the rotation.

Very, very, savvy move by the Sox.

Leadership and the ability to come through in the clutch

I heard late last night that the Sawx are close to inking a 1-year deal for Clemens. ....assholes.

No way. Clemens showed he can't pitch in the AL East. Plus, why would they even pursue him? The rotation right now is stacked - Beckett, Dice-K, Schilling, Wakefield, Buchholz, Lester. There's no room for Rogah.

Well put. :thumbsup:

I for one would have been very disappointed had he finished his career in another uniform.

I couldn't agree with you more, but one day that bubble is going to burst and I'll admit I thought he was over the hill until the post season proved me wrong.

Even if he's over the hill, having six real starting pitches is a wonderful position to be in. He's not going to be a 20 game winner anymore, but if he can deliver 150 innings of 3.5 ERA baseball, I'm okay with that.

I don't think the Sox will use a pure 6 man rotation because that will limit Beckett's appearances. Instead, I think we'll see a modified five man rotation. Beckett and Wake will start every 5th day. Dice-K will too (unless he shows signs of fatigue). Buchholz and Lester will fill out the bottom of the rotation and I'm sure Schilling will spell them rather frequently.

Plus, having Schilling and Tavarez (if he's back) waiting in the wings in case of injury is great news.

Like I said before, this was a savvy move that basically adds insurance against tired arms and against injuries.

Well considering re-signed and resigned mean just about the complete opposite thing in baseball, id say it makes a difference. Fix your title.
