Update: Schilling may miss season

The Boston Herald and Boston Globe, both citing unnamed sources, are reporting that Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling is suffering from a shoulder injury that may sideline him for the entire season.

In addition, both news organizations reported the Red Sox looked into the possibility of voiding the one-year, $8 million contract Schilling signed with the team last November.

The Herald said Schilling has ''a significant shoulder injury that could end the veteran’s season and is causing tension and friction between the player and the team.'' The Globe -- which had broken the story a bit earlier in the afternoon with a report that said Schilling would miss the beginning of spring training and might not be ready for the beginning of the season -- updated its report, saying the sides disagree on whether or not Schilling needs surgery and that surgery would probably sideline him for the season.

The Globe said the injury is not related to the shoulder woes that sidelined Schilling from late June to mid-August last year.

Schilling has his own Web site, 38pitches.com, which he frequently updates. As of mid-afternoon, he had not addressed the issue on his site.

Report: Schilling won't be ready for start of spring training

The Boston Globe is reporting today that shoulder problems will prevent Curt Schilling from opening spring training with the Red Sox. Citing unnamed sources, the Globe says that the problems Schilling is dealing with are similar to those that led the team to shut him down for several weeks in the middle of the 2007 season. The Globe says that Schilling's status for opening day is unknown at this point.
