Curt Schilling runs his own blog and updated it with a look at the process he went through to officially become a free-agent. Well, the process pretty much only included a phone call from Schilling to the MLBPA.

Anyway, Schilling lists the teams he would consider signing with. He says Boston is his #1 choice but lists twelve other possible destinations, which include:

"Cleveland, Detroit, Anaheim, New York Mets, Philadelphia, Atlanta, L.A., S.D., Arizona, Chicago Cubs, St. Louis, Milwaukee"

Keep him the hell away from Cleveland. With Sabathia, Carmona and Westbrook, we don't need him.

I'm a bit surprised to see that many team on his llst. I would think only teams close to a title would be in the running.

The better list will be the teams that want him and how much they are willing to spend. I'm confident there are still a few wins left in his arm .... but ..... the loss numbers will only get larger. He isn't a kid anymore. Right Roger ???

Don't send him to Chicago. We don't need anymore old worn out starters!

If Schilling went back to the National league and made even 28 starts he would win about 15 games. The Phillies and Cardinals seem like the best fits, as neither have any pitching at all right now. Lefty, who would you rather have on the mound in a big spot, Schilling or any of those Cleveland pitchers you mentioned?

I see what you're getting at, but Carmona's young and Westbrook pitched pretty well for us in the playoffs. Only Sabathia really laid an egg.

i would take him back on the Red Sox .... i dont care what he gets for money, im not paying it .. give him $100 million, how does that hurt me

though if he stays with Boston he well could be the #3 or #4 starter and he would have to deal with that ....... if he gets injured i think we have the talent to pick up the slack .... Lester and Bucholtz .. so no worries there

Giving him that much keeps them away from other possibly high priced guys (Arod, maybe even Lowell).
