My Take
Luis Ortiz arrived from San Pedro de Macoris, a Dominican town that has produced an extraordinary number of ballplayers, so expectations naturally follow any pitcher from there. I am always drawn to a hard-throwing right arm, and his talent is undeniable. That is exactly why the 2025 betting investigation that placed him on unpaid leave stings so much; baseball lives on trust, and squandered potential is the saddest kind. I am not ready to write him off. I would rather see him return and compete honestly on the mound. Count me among the people quietly hoping for a real comeback.
