Curt Schilling considers Tigers for 2008!

While his time with the Boston Red Sox is likely at an end, pitcher Curt Schilling says he is not done as a major leaguer, and among 13 teams he would consider signing with for 2008, are the Detroit Tigers.

October 31, ESPN.com: A day after saying he'd written goodbye letters to some of his Boston Red Sox teammates, Curt Schilling has posted a list of 13 teams he'd be willing to play for next season as he enters free agency for the first time.

"There are a million little things that go into this from stadiums to school districts to travel to spring training to etc. etc. etc.," Schilling wrote, "but the list represents the teams after Boston that have some of the off the field things that are big to us, plus the potential to go into October next year."

He listed 2007 playoff teams Cleveland, the Los Angeles Angels, Philadelphia, Arizona and the Chicago Cubs, plus 2006 World Series teams Detroit and St. Louis, the New York Mets, Atlanta, the Los Angeles Dodgers, San Diego and Milwaukee.

Schilling is looking for a one-year contract and could either replace Kenny Rogers as the veteran of the Tigers staff, or join him in solidifying the Tigers rotation after the trade of Jair Jurrjens to Atlanta.

He signed with Boston today. I guess he won't be a Tiger.
