We are all very fortunate that David Ortiz is still playing professional baseball for the Boston Red Sox. Otherwise, the risk of us stumbling upon him naked on camera might increase dramatically.
In a lighthearted feature called “What the (Blank)?” that is run by The Players Tribune, athletes are asked to answer 10 questions about themselves as though they were attending their first day of grade school. Here’s what Big Papi had to say when asked what his dream job would be if he wasn’t an MLB player.
Go ahead and try to erase that visual. You can’t.
Another notable response Ortiz gave came when he answered “fried chicken” to a question asking what food he would attack first at an all-you-can-eat buffet. That’s pretty ironic considering all those rumors that were floating around the Red Sox clubhouse a few years ago, although that stuff was mostly about the pitching staff.
Big Papi is hitting .266 with 35 home runs and 99 RBI this season. I think I speak for everyone when I ask the Red Sox to please, PLEASE bring him back for another season.
