Id put him down for that, and add 5 HR. Last I read he should be ready for opening day, and as DH he will have little opportunity to get hurt again. Love him this year, possibly depressed value on a guy undervalued every year as it is. And he has 1B this year, not just a UTIL fill. Said it before, I'll say it again: The dude can hit.

And if they bat Middlebrooks behind him he will have some protection in the line-up as well.

He's DH only on ESPN and ranked 108 overall. Seems like some value could be had there.

How many games did he play at 1B last year?

Slow starts and injury prone is why he's ranked where he is, sure there is upside but there's a lot of downside too. Dude could hit low 200s with 10 HRs. He's also a huge clubhouse issue with a team thats trying fix and rebuild that team.

Surprised about his achilles. I kind've thought Ortiz just didn't play last year because he hated Valentine.

He ran again today though, second day in a row.
