Curt Schilling: Rehab or retire?

Jun 25th, 2008 by Bill Burt

I’ve stated my opinion in today’s Eagle-Tribune – hang ‘em up Curt — and I’d like to know yours.
I believe this is a no-brainer. Curt Schilling turns 42 in November and by the time he pitches again he will be the back end of 42.
I also believe he has thoughts of the Hall of Fame and 225 wins, he may feel, might be enough, when added to his post-season career, to put him over the top.
I disagree. I believe he will get in eventually. He must remember this is a new era when winning supercedes statistics.
Anyway, let me know your thoughts.

    Well I chimed in on the article. Unfortunately people mix off-field with on-field and the former has an illogical impact on the latter. Who cares if he supports George Bush? I certainly don’t but that has no bearing on what he has helped the Red Sox do, ESPECIALLY in 2004. I roll my eyes half the time he opens his mouth, too, but what difference does it make?

    Curt did great things in this town, and that’s how I will remember him.

    I don’t see why it’s a decision that needs to be made now. If the choice was have surger or retire, then I could see a point to the discussion. At this point, it’s speculation. I’d love to see a healthy Curt Schilling rebound and get at least one more good year in. And I don’t think he should announce his retirement until after he is healthy to make an informed decision.

    I don’t see how either my opinion or yours enters into it. I don’t plan on asking his opinion about my retirement options. Do you plan on seeking your reader’s opinions on yours?

    The decision is entirely his to make.

    Love him or hate him, you have to agree he is a great pitcher.
    He is in my opinion, a hall of famer, earning it with his courage in 2004, and who can forget that almost no hitter last year. He was the one who made Boston whole again.
