Watching the video, he certainly looks targeted. It's fair to ask why and what for? It wasn't random or a stray bullet.

There's a story (rumor) circulating that Ortiz was sitting next to a DR-rapper who is involved in some kind of feud and it was a hit gone bad.

NyPost says it could be a hit ordered by drug Lord because Ortiz was having an affair with his wife.

Per USAToday: David Ortiz is expected to be flown from the Dominican Republic to Boston on Monday afternoon for further treatment of a gunshot wound, and answered yes and no questions from family members, according to one of his associates.

Leo Lopez, Ortiz's assistant, told USA TODAY Sports that Ortiz's family is hopeful he will be on his way to Boston by 4 p.m. ET on Monday, via a plane sent by the Red Sox. Lopez said doctors were examining Ortiz early Monday afternoon to determine whether his condition was sufficiently stable to travel.

"Just yes or no. Not a lot of words, but he can talk," Lopez said of Ortiz.

Ortiz was shot in the "lower back/abdominal region" at a bar in the Dominican Republic on Sunday night and underwent surgery at a local hospital.

"The bullet went through his stomach," Felix Durán Mejia, a spokesperson for the Dominican National Police told CNN.

The Red Sox said in a statement that they "offered David's family all available resources to aid his recovery." He is expected to receive further treatment at Massachusetts General Hospital.


Do they deal with a lot of gunshot wounds at Mass Gen? One would think they'd want to bring him to a place where they are used to doing so, like Stroger Hospital in Chicago.

Gunshot wounds might not be a specilaty at Mass General, but surgery and follow-up care for severe internal injuries to vital organs, is.

I was at Mass Gen for about 2+ weeks about 40 years ago, for internal surgery, and have nothing but praise for one of the best hospitals in the country.

A rare backhanded compliment to Boston.

As for where to take him, why not choose some place in the "top" 25 for murder rates in the US instead of Chicago?

MLB needs to correct the ball. It's ruining the game.

Maybe you should look up Stroger Hospital.

Instead of tapping into your usual knee-jerk BS.
