Red Sox Make 1 Year Offer To Tek


Rob Bradford of WEEI.com is reporting that the initial Red Sox offer to Jason Varitek was for 1 year and less than Posada's yearly salary of $13 million. It is very unlikely that Tek will accept this offer but shows that the Red Sox are not willing to go with a long term deal. Based on the initial offer I would speculate that Theo's final offer will be for 2 years and he is willing to move on without Varitek.

Hind sight is always 20/20 -- any Red Sox management regrets at not having signed Tek to a five year instead of a four year contract?

I remember when the last Tek contract was announced people thought they gave him too long of a deal. A 5 year deal would have been very nice.
