Big Papi has not heard anything from the Red Sox about next season:
No, sir,” he said. “Not one word.”
What are they waiting for? “No idea,” he said. “I would like to know too.
“We’ll see. They always come up with something. I want to [come back], but it doesn’t depend on me anymore, you know?”
The team will likely pick up his 2011 option for $12.5 million since the slugger proved he still had some pop in his bat. Going into this season it looked like Ortiz would be playing his final year in a Red Sox uniform and might not have held on to the DH role. However, his 28 homers this season have put rumors of his baseball death to rest.
