Official poll question:
Will Veritek be in Boston next season?
I vote he'll be gone,he'll retire prior to
the start of the season unless someone bites
in trade talks.

First, you ill-bred, flatulent dolt, you must explain who "Veritek"
is. Perhaps part of the grounds crew? Once we know who you are
referring to, we can answer if we wish to patronize you.

Nope. The chances are slim too none.

So you have a contact close to Tek or Boras? Balls still in their court.
I'm not even sure the team won't eat the money if they were to find a more
attractive option.

Geez Ray...he generally leaves you alone. It could be a full time gig if he
wanted it.

Varitek will be back, on the bench. They'll use him as a fill-in
whenever any of Martinez, Youkilis, or Lowell need some time off.

who's going to replace him. he'll have to adjust. and I'm all for a "thanks
for the memories and good luck in your next job"
but is there anybody in Pawtucket ready? and decent journeymen free agents?
catchers are getting as rare as hens teeth.

I predict that he will be back doing a variety of things--back-up
catcher, perhaps some type of bullpen coach, or whatever the FO
feels will help the team.

But also totally expected and in this case understandable.

Yes!
But not necessarily as only a player.

You know what? I wouldn't be surprised if that is what's holding up Tek's
decision. The embarrassment of wearing that C, yet obviously not being that
guy any longer. Mock him if you like...but the guy deserves better after
the fine years he's had here.

he's hung on past his abilities but his dalliance with Heidi "the
Home-Wrecker" sdaddled him with an expensive divorce.
he's hanging on because he needs the money.
I appreciate what he's done, but I wanted him to retire before last season
and do so now.
but I also expect he'll be back.
