Carlton Fisk
21 January 2009
00 games in his career for the Red Sox, putting him at the top of the club's all time list ahead of Carlton Fisk (a hall of fame catcher who was the heart and soul of his team that the Red Sox let walk away too soon, mind you). The Captain has given everything he's had and then some to his team and the city of Boston, suffering through the bad years with us before playing a huge roll in the magical 2004 postseason that brought the Red Sox their first World Series championship in 86 years. If Varitek were to go, not only would it be his first season in the Major Leagues not in a Red Sox uniform, but then David Ortiz would be almost the only piece left over from the greatest team in Red Sox history. It seems to me to be so simple, so why haven't both sides agreed to terms on a new deal yet?
