Is Schilling Done?

This could be it for Curt Schilling. He had shoulder surgery the other day, and some speculate that it could end his career. The surgery happened because Curt hit a plateau in his rehab. Now, many say that he should have had this surgery before spring training. However, if that happened, he would have been out for the whole year as well and that would have been after he signed a contract with the Sox. The Sox made an investment in him and would lose the money if he had season-ending surgery. They thought it best that he try to rehab his shoulder and see if he could come back late in the year. All the Sox were trying to do was protect their investment. For anyone to say that the Sox were wrong in making him rehab, think of it this way. You hire someone to work for you. A couple weeks after hiring that person, the person says that they are going to have to come in late everyday because they have kids. You try to accommodate them but they want to get paid for time that they aren't putting in. Are you as a boss going to let that happen or are you going to try and protect the business. All I can say is that I wish Curt the best and I hope that it isn't the end of his career because he still has gas left in the tank.

If Curt's career is over, he should go into the Hall of Fame. Even though he may not have the wins like some others. He is one of the most dominating pitchers of his era. He has all of the other numbers except for those wins. You also have to factor in his post season accolades. He is one of the best post season pitchers ever. Also, Curt was directly responsible for getting his teams to the post season. Although he doesn't have the wins, he has everything else.
