With the annual All-Star Game is also the annual questioning of players who should have or should not have made the team....It is common practice that the manager of the team usually takes care of players from his own team - which is understandable...I have no problem there...but how in the hell can American League manager Terry Francona justify in putting catcher Jason Varitek on the team?....
Varitek is batting .215!!!!...yes, that is .215, not .315!!!...I like Varitek...he is a good defensive catcher, but come on Terry Francona!!!!...that bonehead move cost someone more deserving to be a part of the team, like Jermaine Dye, Mike Mussina, Evan Longoria, B.J. Upton, or Jose Guillen...
Sorry, but bad move Francona....

Varitek was voted in by the players not chosen by Francona.
Yeah, I hate Varitek just as much as the next guy and that "C" on his jersey is a disgrace, but the players voted him in.
My bad!!!
