I dont know Mike, Curt Schilling does what he has to, to win games. I think winning is far more important than ERA. Sure he doesnt have the velocity or the ERA he had 3-4 years ago, but he is a winner. Like Jeter, players rally around the guy and give him support when needed. I'd rather have him on my team than a guy like Pedro, who is mentally weak but physically more talented than anyone in the game, maybe even Clemens.
Schilling reminds me so much of Jeter in that respect. When he wins games, nobody should give a damn about his ERA.
