FORT MYERS, Fla. - Not surprisingly, Red Sox pitcher Curt Schilling has been placed on the 60-day DL today with an arm injury. The veteran right-hander has been rehabbing at the club's spring training facility here early in the mornings and then leaves.

As a result of Schilling's departure from the active roster, the Red Sox signed right-hander Lincoln Holdzkom and placed him on the 40-man roster. He split time between Portland and Pawtucket last season. He was a six-year free agent at the end of last season, and was picked up by the Phillies in the Rule V draft. Philadelphia then offered him back to Boston, and because of that, he had the option to become a free agent. He decided to sign with the Red Sox.
