David Ortiz Accepts Arbitration, DH To Return To Boston Red Sox

News

David Ortiz will be back for a 10th season with the Boston Red Sox.

With a few hours left before Wednesday’s midnight ET deadline, Ortiz’s representatives informed the Red Sox that the slugger had accepted the club’s offer of arbitration.

Though the acceptance of arbitration guarantees Ortiz will return to the Red Sox for one more season, the designated hitter still has hope of getting a multiyear deal before the process ends in January.
