I say he has been reliable all year we live by him we die by him give him the ball...go sox

I tell you, what scares me is that the Red Sox pitcher coaches and the Manager in general, have a scary history of letting the pitcher himself decide if he should STAY IN THE GAME.
I think they should let Curt start, yes. But I think he needs to be watched, and I think that no matter what HE says, if he's not doing so great - pull him quick.
Oh, and yes, I'm invoking the God of Arsenel 1989 to help us!
Go Red Sox!

I can't picture Francona giving his ace the hook.

Originally posted by PhlabibitYeah, he does have his bad days.....but I think he could pitch quite a bit. You don't have to throw the googler very fast to get it to do it's thing. I like in the high 60's right?
He could pitch everyday, but would his ball dance???
I like him, when he's doing well.

When he's on, he's on! He might throw some again this evening? I wouldn't be surprised! They say the rain will have cleared up for the game... so we'll know soon enough!

I love the Red Sox, and I live in Cleveland. Tim Wakefield is clearly the man. Anyone who throws the knucks is on my top ten coolest people list.
And, yes Schilling has to go tonight. Shall I start with the cliches? "There is no tomorrow"

Originally posted by chaswrayThere is also nobody else available, as they've used all their other possible starters in the last two days' marathons. Schilling won't make 5 tonight; Lieber's practically unbeatable at the House That Ruth Built and so the travesty ends tonight! Congratulations to the Sox for winning two terrific games; I've even decided to promote them from "pathetic losers" to the more respectable category of "losers"!
