After a wave of rumors that right- handed ace Curt Schilling will be U.S.Senate candidate in Massachusetts in 2008, Schilling has officially announced he will pitch through 2008. Though he had announced during the ‘06 season that the ‘07 season would be his last season in the MLB, but he gave second thoughts to his decision after talking it over with his family.
Curt Schilling in Action
Schilling’s contract with the Red Sox will end after the 2007 season, but discussions for an extension are still going on. But if things do not work out and Schilling has to file for free agency, he will pitch for some other team, but not the New York Yankees. 40 year old Schilling will not follow the path of his friend Randy Johnson and move to New York after this season.
Schilling was 15-7 with a 3.97 ERA in 2006 and is 207-138 over his career that started in 1988.
