David Ortiz seems to be enjoying retirement, but one of his former teammates is stirring the pot about a possible return to baseball.
Baseball Hall of Famer and Boston Red Sox legend Pedro Martinez took to Twitter on Monday night to suggest an in-shape Ortiz could help the Red Sox’s lineup.
Big Papi is working out, and I know he is in baseball shape, and the @RedSox could use a bit of his bat.

We doubt Big Papi will lace up his spikes again, but Martinez’s cryptic tweet surely will send Red Sox fans, and the baseball world, into a frenzy.
Ortiz will be making a return to Fenway Park soon, though. The Red Sox will retire his No. 34 in a ceremony on June 23.
