<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>David Ortiz - DH - Red Sox ESPN Deportes is reporting that the Red Sox and David Ortiz are close on a four-year, $50 million extension through 2010.Because of his build, Ortiz doesn't seem like a great bet to be worth $12.5 million per year into his mid-30s. The Red Sox already control Ortiz at $7.75 million for 2007, so this would really $42.25 million for three years. Just because he'd probably do better than that as a free agent wouldn't make it a good deal for Boston. Mar. 31 - 1:30 pm etSource: ESPN Deportes</div>
