"Fuggin' Scott Boras... what a dumb ass." I totally agree with you here Doc.
But at least we keep Tek for another year, mabye more.
Here are some of the details.... (From another site I belong to.....)
Jason Varitek and the Red Sox have agreed to a one-year contract with an option, a baseball source confirmed to the Globe's Tony Massarotti.
Varitek will earn $5 million in 2009, with the club holding a $5 million option for 2010. If the Red Sox do not pick up that option, Varitek has the choice of remaining with the club on a $3 million deal. In '10, he can earn another $2 million in incentives based on playing time, beginning at 80 games started.
Thus, the potential total value of the deal increases from $8 million-$10 million to $10 million-$12 million. The incentives apply to both the team and player options for 2010.

Women it seems are the antichrist.
Ugh sorry, but the only thing that was worth is his captain presense. Other than that, they would have been much better off with him gone. IMHO~

Tek, has to much experience with pitchers and hitters to let him go this year without passing on that info to the cather of the future of the Sox. I'm glad he is stil here.

Woof!
What exactly does a captain do on a baseball team? Wouldn't his job be to keep things in the clubhouse on the right path? Did he do that with Manny last year? :whistling: I realize that Manny is a tool, but I think it is funny that a "captain" be important to a baseball team.
I think that a 37 year old catcher, who hit .229 last year, should be extremely happy he got a $5 million contract for this year with an option. :thumbs:
Because I know you guys hate the Yankers, what purpose does Jeter serve as a captain? :laugh:

Lobstah; the other white meat!
I think Ted would be the first to admit that baseball is not a game anymore, it's just another money hungry, dirty business.
With that said Jason's knowledge is more valuable than his knee's will allow anything else to be.....It will be a shame to see him go but its not to far in the future.

An experienced catcher is priceless...
Leads by example, Jeter someone the younger players can use as a mentor...
