Given how terrible the market was for DHs this winter, it would be interesting to see what David Ortiz could get on the open market if he puts together a great 2010 season.<br /><br />Thanks again for the comment.Jorge Says No!https://www.blogger.com/profile/04358737179481087781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1153099884472898149.post-86838280199529314742010-03-16T09:26:50.005-04:002010-03-16T09:26:50.005-04:00If he hits 35 and bats .290 you can almost bet tha...If he hits 35 and bats .290 you can almost bet that he's going to get at least type B status so that's all they'll want from him is his draft picks...Look for them to acquire someone mid season or look for Hermida to step in and wow peopleNortonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04636747913326661032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1153099884472898149.post-83389122944991287222010-03-16T09:24:57.946-04:002010-03-16T09:24:57.946-04:00Norton,

Let's say Ortiz hits 35 HR with a .290 batting average and .380 OBP...would it make much sense to turn down the option then?<br /><br />Look, I understand that there is a very, very small chance that the Red Sox will even have to think twice about not picking up the option, but given what Ortiz means to the Red Sox and the remaining (and diminishing) probability that he puts together a strong 2010 season, I'm not ready to say "no matter what"<br /><br />Thanks for the comment.Jorge Says No!https://www.blogger.com/profile/04358737179481087781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1153099884472898149.post-84342135679572858092010-03-16T09:15:58.529-04:002010-03-16T09:15:58.529-04:00Lowell will not be a DH.. nor will he be on this t...Lowell will not be a DH.. nor will he be on this team more than a week into the regular season if that.
