David Ortiz Says He Wants To Stay With Boston Red Sox

News

Haven’t we heard this before?

David Ortiz says that he doesn’t want to go anywhere and stay in Boston.

David Ortiz has sung the same tune for the last five years, and he won’t stop just because he’s a free agent and technically hurting his bargaining position: The designated hitter wants to return to the Red Sox.

In fact, Ortiz said yesterday, if he receives an offer from another team that he’s considering accepting, he will give the Red Sox a chance to match.

“I’m not in a rush,” he said. “This is the offseason. I know I’m going to be somewhere next year — hopefully it’s here. But like I say, the faster things happen, the more important it is for you to know where you’re going to be. There are a lot of teams out there that need players.
