Retired Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz is up for consideration for the Baseball Hall of Fame this week.
Big Papi was a longtime fan-favorite in Boston, where he spent most of his memorable 20-year MLB career. The Red Sox retired no. 34 for Ortiz in 2017.
Ortiz, who joined the team in 2003 after spending the early part of his career with the Minnesota Twins, was a crucial part in the Red Sox World Series Victories in 2004, 2007 and 2013.
