      <title>Is Big Papi's Slump Over?</title>
      <author>Chris Girvin</author>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;Many people have thought that the beginning of the &amp;#39;08-&amp;#39;09 season would result in a complete dud of a season for the great Red-Sox slugger, David Ortiz.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;He answered the baseball world last Thursday by going 2-4 with a grand slam and five RBI. Add on top of all of that, in the past week, he has brought his average up from a .125 to .176, and he is steadily working his way back up to what I think will eventually be .270-.300 by the next time they play the Yankees.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;nbsp;honestly think that this season will be one of Ortiz&amp;#39;s best seasons. Once this slump is completely behind him, he&amp;#39;ll skyrocket up into the rankings.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
