Currently, the Boston Red Sox are in the news for their salary cuts. The Massachusetts team no longer seems to want to spend its money to win.
Increasingly, there is a sense that the club is operating as a small market team.
Fans miss the days of David Ortiz, when the club had the means to achieve its ambitions and when Ortiz was the leader the club needed.
Today, Ortiz is obviously retired. Even though he often gives his opinion on the Red Sox (especially to FOX Sports), there is nothing he can do to help on the field.
But in light of what has just come out, one might think that he would no longer be able to help.
Why am I saying this (in a joking tone, obviously) this afternoon? Because of this video, where we see Big Papi being handcuffed by a bullet inside in a gender reveal.
The former big hitter, who will become a father again, was given a pitch to hit a ball to find out if he will be the father of a boy or a girl. And as we can see, he missed his shot.
We see that time has done its job, but still: many major baseball pitchers of the 21st century must wonder what the secret is to mystifying Papi like this.
After all, it didn't happen often.
You will understand that this is causing a lot of talk on social networks and that’s fair game. After all, rarely has Ortiz been so little clutch…
