I've always been of the opinion that Timlin was garbage, but not Schilling. My knee-jerk reaction was to call you guys overreactionary Red Sox fans with regard to Schilling, but then I watched the game.

That was quite possibly one of the worst pitching performances I have ever seen out of someone that is supposed to be a legitimate #2-#3. 85-88 mph fastball and a 82-85 off-speed pitch? That is terrible.

That was the same reaction the Braves had. Chipper said he's never seen him that bad and he assumed he was hurt.

With regards to Timlin, he fell off fast this year. He was good to very good 2003-2005 (ERA+ of 133,118,and 197), average in 2006, and now he's lost it. He's old.

He's been one of my favorites over the past few years, but he's done.
