Big Papi is back!!!

The last poll that was posted asked, "Will David Ortiz come out of his slump?" A whopping 4 people responded, and only one person said yes. (I am happy to say that was me!)

Big Papi now has 3 HR in his last 5 games, and his batting average has soared over the Mendoza line to .203. Over the last 7 days, Big Papi is hitting .350 with a .458 OBP.

Ortiz has not lost his knack for clutch hitting, either. Ortiz decided to break out of his season long slump against the archrival Yankees with 2 HR in 3 games.

I think that his hot hitting probably earned him a start in interleague play against the Phillies.
