Finally, we have Schill's Hall of Fame prospects. There's been a rush to enshrine him in some quarters, but it might be wise to put the brakes on Schilling's Cooperstown reservations.
Assuming he never pitches again (not a stretch, according to 38Pitches), Schilling finishes with a won-lost record of 216-146. Sorry, that just doesn't cut it - not unless Bert Blyleven and Jack Morris go in first. Blyleven won 287 games. Morris won 254. Schilling was superb in the postseason, but modern October numbers are somewhat artificial. There are three rounds of playoffs. There used to be the World Series and nothing more. Bernie Williams hit 22 postseason homers - more than any other player except Manny Ramírez (24).
