Life has been good for David Ortiz. He’s a three-time World Series champion who’s made millions of dollars playing baseball for a living.
It’s no wonder the Boston Red Sox designated hitter took a big picture approach to his Christmas list this year and asked Santa Claus for things far more important than fancy possessions.

It’s hard to argue with Ortiz’s wish list. Most level-headed humans probably would like the same four things — with maybe a couple of extra requests — and we already knew Big Papi had a big heart.
There’s one notable omission from Ortiz’s list, of course. But his desire for a fourth World Series ring should be implied. There’s no sense asking for something like that, right?
After all, how can we be sure Jolly Old Saint Nicholas isn’t a closet Yankees fan?
