Red Sox DH Ortiz gets cast removed

David Ortiz had the cast removed from his left wrist on Monday and replaced by a removable splint, an encouraging sign for Boston’s big slugger. Ortiz sustained a partial tear of the sheath that surrounds his tendon while swinging during a game against Baltimore on May 31. He went on the disabled list a few days later for the first time since he joined the Red Sox before the 2003 season.
