| Biography: |
| Signed with the D'Backs in December of 2004 coming from the Atlanta Braves where he won 21 games in 2003. He has never been that good since. Despite a spring that included an ERA nearing 7.00 Ortiz claims he's ready for the season. Reports had the D'Backs shopping him to anyone in the league, and getting no takers even when they offered to pick up half his salary. The starter most likely to be replaced by Kevin Jarvis and Dustin Nippert before the All-Star Break Ortiz continues to try to be too fine, falling behind in counts and then having to throw flat fastballs that seems to, more often than not, end up in the bleachers. |
