Blog Hog: The "Bring Back Varitek Campaign" Kicks Off (Again)

Look what The Boston Globe wrote about Saltalamacchia after the Martinez deal, Dear Criss:

"'Nothing is set in stone but it looks like I could have an opportunity to earn a spot in the lineup,' he said. ... He also is hoping that Jason Varitek will be back.

'That would benefit everybody,' he said. 'In the two months I was in Boston, I saw how much trust and respect the pitchers had with 'Tek. That's the guy I want to learn from. If I'm with him, I know I'll be getting all the right information. His presence in the clubhouse is huge.'"

I love this boy already.
