AGRO78: "Most pitchers in Schilling's position would want to do everything they can to maintain such a roll. Not Schilling. He'll be upset with himself if he can't reach back for a little more, beginning Tuesday against a very tough Anaheim lineup.
"I think, starting [Tuesday], you have to be better than you were. I have always felt like that," said Schilling. "I have always felt like I needed to be better than I was over the previous six months."
