Suck it in, Curt: Schilling's one-year deal hinges on his ability to stay away from Dunkin Donuts (AI Wire)

 

Curt Schilling and the Boston Red Sox finalized a one-year contract Tuesday worth about $8 million in base salary and millions more in potential incentives.

The deal is pending Schilling passing a physical exam. The Red Sox announced the deal Tuesday afternoon, but did not disclose Schilling's salary.

The deal is believed to contain $3 million in performance bonuses based on innings pitched and $2 million in weight clauses. On his blog Tuesday, Schilling wrote that bonuses are tied to six random weigh-ins.

Schilling would get a $375,000 bonus for pitching 130 innings, and an additional $375,000 for every 10-inning increment up to 200. He also will have the random weigh-ins, one per month, and get $333,333 each time he maintains his weight.
