Red Sox's David Ortiz: Continues improbable career year

Ortiz went 3-for-5 with a homer and four RBI against the Twins on Thursday.

Analysis:

Apparently, this guy is 40 years old and about to retire, not a 27-year-old superstar in his prime. You wouldn't know it from the stat line, as Ortiz is carrying a 1.096 OPS -- the highest mark of his career. Every year, he comes too cheap in fantasy drafts, and every year, he pays off the owners who dish out the extra buck to acquire him. Maybe he shouldn't retire so soon.
