Schilling will not pitch Sunday

The Red Sox just announced that pitcher Curt Schilling will not make his scheduled start tomorrow in the regular-season finale against Minnesota. Julian Tavarez will get the nod instead.

Since the Sox clinched the division title on Friday, there's no need for Schilling to work on Sunday. That decision basically sets the Sox' rotation for the first two games of the ALDS against the Angels. It's likely Josh Beckett will start Game 1 either Wednesday or Thursday, and Schilling will get the ball in Game 2 on Friday. Both games are at Fenway Park.
