An industry source told Michael Silverman of the Boston Herald that free agent David Ortiz is receiving "serious" interest from more than one team.
In other words, the Red Sox have company. Which isn't surprising because both the Blue Jays and Orioles have already been linked. Ortiz batted .309/.398/.554 with 29 home runs and 96 RBI in 146 games this year, and seems likely to score a substantial two- or three-year deal. A Type A free agent, he could also make around $16 million for 2011 by accepting an offer of salary arbitration from the Red Sox.
