Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Schilling spat w/ Boston team doctor

Curt Schilling has a bum shoulder.  The team doctors medically cleared him after last season, he signed a 1 year deal for $8 mill, and then, apparently it worsened.  Sound familiar?  The team doctors are prescribing rest then a strengthening program while a shoulder specialist (Dr. Morgan) says Schilling needs to go under the knife pronto if he is to pitch this season.  Sounds real familiar.  Can you say Mark Mulder?  What's interesting is that Schilling is publicly dis'ing the Boston team doctor.

And did you catch the elaborate prank pulled against the Phillies Kyle Kendrick?  They convinced the kid he had been traded to the Japan's "Yomiuri Giants" (the team does not exist).

Not quite
The Yomiuri Giants exist, the player they 'got' in the deal was the part that was made up.

Loved the prank
Best part, the "player" Kobayashi Iwamura is the hot dog eating champ.

I think Shilling needs to have the cards doctors look at him. His shoulder is fine, he just hasn't been told yet.

He said he had 2 offers for $14 Mil, if one of them came from the redbirds we just dodged a bullet ala the Matrix.
