Breaking News: Varitek, Red Sox have a deal

BOSTON -- The captain is staying put. The Red Sox and free-agent catcher Jason Varitek agreed on a contract, two sources confirmed to MLB.com on Friday.

The deal is for one year, at $5 million, with an option for 2010 that Boston could activate at $5 million or Varitek could at $3 million.

Varitek could make another $2 million in 2010 via incentive clauses, the Boston Globe reported, meaning the total value of the contract will be as low as $8 million or as high as $12 million.
