Schilling Out Of All Star Game

[Ortiz34]

Im not sure of the exact details. But i was flicking through the channels on tv, and i heard someone on PTI (pardon the interuption) say schilling will not be playing in the allstar game. I wasn't sure why or how he decided this, but does anybody else know?

I found the site, its not for sure. I think i heard them say that it was certain that he would sit it out, but its to give his foot a rest. I think thats a smart move on his part.

yes, very smart. id rather see him get hurt helping the team than getting hurt while in the ASG

[yawkeyway]

or just have him rest and not be hurt at all

Joe Torre asked Pedro to join the team, but pedro decline because he already had made plans to go back to the DR...he recieved permission from the team to leave today for the DR

yeah, they had a bobble head doll of him in the dugout to keep his spirit there.
