FORT MYERS, Fla. -- David Price and David Ortiz have had some epic disagreements. So what happens when Ortiz reports to the Fenway South complex in a few days?
Price, who signed a $217 million free-agent contract with the Boston Red Sox in the offseason, is on Big Papi’s turf now. It’s Papi’s clubhouse and Papi’s team.
Can they forget about the animosity?
“I hope so,” Price said Saturday. “I’m ready to be his teammate and his friend. That’s what I’m looking forward to. I want to be accepted by all my teammates, and that’s something you need to have if you want to get to where we need to be.
