A few notes from recent Boston Globe articles…
- Curt Schilling recently posted at Sons of Sam Horn regarding his future. Nothing has changed – he’d still like a one-year deal from the Red Sox but failing that he wants to join a winner or play for a team with young pitchers to tutor. He mentions that "dollars will be a significant factor" if he leaves Boston. The SOSH threads can be found here and here.
- Sounds like the Cubs were more than just interested in Hiroki Kuroda last winter – they may have made an offer. He considered a deal with the Cubs but stayed in Japan for personal reasons. The Cubs and Mariners are considered the top contenders for him this winter.
