Curt Schilling says that pitching for the New York Yankees next season isn't an option, according to the Boston Globe.

His doctor Craig Morgan claimed on a Boston-area radio station that Schilling was interested in playing for the Bombers.

"It's a non-issue," Schilling said. "It really never should have even unfortunately been a discussion. From what I understand, it was a big deal. I mean, I had no idea. I woke up and thought they were kidding."
