Varitek's "C" Isn't for Cookie

Has everyone noticed a difference in one player's uniform on the Red Sox? Jason Varitek has a large "C" on his chest. Originally I figured this to be for "captain" but upon looking at other captains of other teams (Derek Jeter, for example, or footage of Mattingly and Guidry from their playing days) I noticed no such letter sewn on their chests.

So I open the question to the readers: tell me what you think this rogue "C" could stand for. Let's figure this out in the comments, once and for all.

Nope, it just stands for captain. Unlike Posada, Varitek is probably one of the smartest defensive catchers in the league, and an all around class act.

Heres an interesting stat: 3 - Jason Varitek, Boston A.L., 2001, 2002, 2007

Yep, thats 3 career no hitters caught. Too bad ol' Posada can't say the same thing.

But OK, if you want to play that game, pefect games caught:
Posada 1, Varitek, 0
