Ortiz better think about it after watching his pal Vlady go through what he went through with the stats he put up last year. If it wasn’t for the O’s he’d be playing for 2 mill this year.

Message to David Ortiz……The Yankees have a lot of aging players who will need that DH spot, best of luck.

beat me to it!

and one quite young player who might need it.

Paps is going to explode this year, he knows what he is playing for and you will see a different pitcher…As for Ortiz he will be the same player good for 25-30 home runs and will resign with the Sox at maybe 5-6 million a year on a 2 year contract, or he will sign with the Mariners who need a good left handed DH.

I wonder what Wally would do this time. First he just walked away from Ortiz, what’s next? (Referring to the ESPN commercial by the way)

I hate you for referencing that before me. I loved that commercial.
wickedkevin
I was hoping they’d link that commercial in the post.

I’m a fan of the “Manny being Manny” commercial. The one where the two guys watch him read a newspaper while eating a sandwhich. “What is he doing?! The Crazy things he does!Thats just Manny Being Manny!”
Braydon Gervais
Papi…while your a red sox I don’t want to hear you even say the word “Yankees” unless you are talking about how much you despise them.

Ortiz received a $50M/4yr contract after the Sox 2007 championship series. It is likely that if the Sox win another championship in 2011, David will be re-signed, perhaps for as much as $20M/3yrs. But anything less, he may see a $10/2yr offer, providing he equals or exceeds his 2010 performance. It he tails off, at all, he may be history in beantown by next October.

Ortiz is on the wrong side of his mid thirties. I don’t care if we sweep the playoffs, Ortiz is not going to be offered a three year deal. If he performs well, he might get something like Wakefield’s old rolling team option, but they’re not going to commit three years to him.

And Bartolo!

Wow, Ortiz was pretty quick to change his stance on the whole “not even thinking about my next contract” thing.

fatty-o got some ‘chit’.

If Ortiz wants to stay in Boston he is going year to year with them otherwise they will look elsewhere to replace him with a better rounded player.
phoenix2042
no I think ortiz is plenty round.

Why did it take five hours for someone to make this joke?
Leonard Washington
If Ortiz is productive he will be re-signed for two years, not 3 though. The team has a reasonable amount of youth all around so the majority of the DH at-bats could easily go Ortiz’s way over the next couple of years as long as he is effective.
