    I would suggest understanding what you are posting about next time.

    1 - Francona didn't select Varitek

    2 - Varitek was batting .250 a couple weeks back

    3 - Varitek is arguably the most important "catcher" in the game.

    Varitek was the most important catcher at some point man, he is not an all star
