In a series that goes to four games I think there really is no situation in which you can give the MVP award to a pitcher, unless he pitches a perfect game or something. Schilling pitched well, no doubt about it, and he made sacrifices for the team. I dont think it should be looked down upon that everyone thinks of him as such a dirtdog now, he is, he just didnt deserve the MVP this time around.
In 2001, when he co-owned the MVP award, he pitched 21.3 innings and had a 1.69 ERA. He struck out 26 yankees and had only 2 walks. That's deserving of an MVP award. It's deserving of any award imagineable, including the Nobel prize for pitching (if such a prize existed).
That's why no one is arguing for Schilling, despite how well he pitched. It's just a wonder as to why it didnt go to Foulke is all.
