| David Ortiz blames slump on oblique issue |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(5/14/13) Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz is blaming a sore oblique muscle for his batting slump, ESPN reports.
"I've been dealing with a sore left side," Ortiz said. "For that reason, I was pulling the ball rather than hitting it the opposite way. I was hurt in one of the first games when we returned home due to the cold, but I'm feeling better and soon will start hitting again."
Ortiz had just one hit in his last 20 at-bats entering Tuesday, but pulled an inside fastball against Tampa Bay starter Matt Moore for a three-run homer in the first inning of Tuesday's game.

| Red Sox manager providing David Ortiz a breather |
by Michael Hurcomb | CBSSports.com
(5/12/13) Red Sox DH David Ortiz was held out of the starting lineup for Sunday's series finale vs. Toronto because manager John Farrell wanted to provide him two straight days off heading into Tuesday's game against the Rays, which opens a nine-game road trip.
Ortiz is batting .059 (1 for 17) in his last four games, but Farrell said it doesn't have anything to do with the column earlier this week suggesting Ortiz's fast start has been aided by performance-enhancing drugs, according to The Boston Herald.
"He gets off to a great start, goes into a little bit of a three or four game thing where he might be pulling off the ball more than he did when he first rejoined us," Farrell said. "There's nothing abnormal here. We'd love to think that he's going to hit .500 for the whole year, but that's probably going to tail off at some point."

| David Ortiz hitless in last 17 plate appearances |
by Jeff Lippman | CBSSports.com
(5/11/13) Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz has gone 0 for 16 with a walk over his last 17 plate appearances, WEEI.com reported Saturday.
The skid coincides with a Boston Globe story about Ortiz being asked if he was using performance-enhancing drugs.
“I can’t say the story has affected him in the result of what the last three days have been,” manager John Farrell said.

| David Ortiz is about as steady as a Fantasy player comes. Before he was injured last year, he was sporting a 1.026 OPS, his highest since 2007. His .318 batting average was also the highest for Ortiz since 2007. He had 23 doubles in 324 at-bats and had made his requisite five appearances at first, giving him eligibility at the position. He enters 2013 with the same outlook as every year, but with a tweak. There's the 30 home run potential and the concern he is only eligible at DH until he can get those five games at first base when interleague play comes around. But Ortiz has a .312 average over the last two years, after hitting .257 the previous three. It's safe to now consider him a batting average contributor, as well (he has a career mark of .285). A top option at DH, Ortiz should be off the board in the early rounds of 2013 drafts. (Updated 12/3/12) |
