Curt Schilling news:

On Curt Schillings blog, he said that he is still not sure if I'm going to come back but if either the Cubs or Rays need a starting pitcher in the second half, I will be very interested.

Paul Sullivan of the Chicago Tribune heard from a Cubs official that they weren't surprise to here about the news. Sullivan thinks that the Cubs will take a chance on Schilling at the right price.
