The Red Sox re-signed catcher Jason Varitek to a one-year, $2MM deal, tweets
SI's Jon Heyman. MLB.com's Peter Gammons adds that the deal has $300K in
incentives.
Varitek, 39 in April, will return for a 15th season in Boston. Last year, the
Red Sox captain appeared in just 39 games and he'll likely assume a backup
role again in 2011, when Jarrod Saltalamacchia could become the regular
Boston backstop.
Thanks in large part to a torrid start at the plate, Varitek finished the
2010 season with a strong .232/.293/.473 batting line. The former Silver
Slugger winner belted seven homers in just 123 plate appearances, proving
that he still has some pop.
Though Varitek struggled to limit opposing base stealers early in the season,
he threw out nine of 43 would-be base stealers overall. That figure (21%) is
below average, but significantly better than the 13% mark he posted in 2009.
袜子签回队长,明年应该会是以替补身份上埸,合约为2M/y 一年约,包括30万激励奖金
可以经验传承了...XD
