Red Sox legend Jason Varitek’s wife appears to take massive swipe at team after ugly ouster


Catherine Varitek, the wife of former Red Sox captain Jason Varitek, apparently took a swipe at Boston Chief Baseball Officer Craig Breslow on social media Monday morning.

And buddy, for annoyed Sox followers at present powering by way of probably the most brutal seasons in latest reminiscence, it was music to their (our) ears.

Jason Varitek was one among 5 coaches fired late final month after a 17-1 win in Baltimore. Manager Alex Cora was the headliner nationally, however Varitek’s departure — which the team tried to body as a “reassignment” — lower the fanbase the deepest.

The 54-year-old is a legend in Boston. He was the captain from 2005-2011. He was a part of two World Series groups. He famously kickedstarted the 2004 season by going to battle with Alex Rodriguez. He’s been within the Red Sox group for 3 many years, and was a coach underneath Cora for nearly his entire tenure in Boston.

He’s a Red Sox lifer. A favourite fan. A cult hero. Naturally, he was fired (reassigned!) final month, together with Cora and three others.

For these questioning the place the Varitek household stands a month later, this is Catherine chiming in through Twitter:

Things are going nicely for the Red Sox!

“They have the ‘smartest man in baseball’ running the show,” she mentioned in response to a fan’s query about Varitek returning to the team. “They’ll be OK without Jason, that’s what they wanted. It’s what’s best for the team.”

Amazing. This is what has grow to be of this Red Sox season. Wives at the moment are utilizing social media to mock the entrance workplace. And make no mistake about it, this was 100% a swipe at Craig Breslow.

Again, Varitek was technically “reassigned.” That by no means occurred. He bought on the aircraft with the remainder of the fired Red Sox coaching staff final month, and by no means returned.

Red Sox CEO Sam Kennedy was requested about Varitek’s standing final week by NESN’s Tom Caron, and left the door open for a possible return:

Sounds good… however I ain’t shopping for it. No shot. I hope I’m unsuitable, as a result of I grew up watching Jason Varitek. He was every little thing good concerning the mid-2000s Red Sox.

He was such a massive a part of the 2 World Series championships in 2004 and 2007. He was a three-time All-Star, a two-time World Series champ, a received a Silver Slugger AND Gold Glove in 2005. He’s a member of the Red Sox Hall of Fame.

Most importantly, he was a part of the arguably probably the most iconic second of the 2004 season when he shoved his mitt in Alex Rodriguez’s face.

We’ve gone from that… to Catherine Varitek mocking the team 20 years later.

Sad.

What a season.
