Ortiz (elbow) is back in the lineup Sunday against the Mariners, Scott Lauber of the Boston Herald reports. As manager John Farrell alluded to in his post-game press conference, Ortiz will not require any time off after he left Saturday's contest with swelling on his elbow. He'll occupy the third spot in the Red Sox lineup, nestling in between Dustin Pedroia and Yoenis Cespedes.
