The thoughts and prayers of many around the sports world have been with David Ortiz over the past 24 hours, as the former Red Sox slugger recovers after being shot during what has since been described as an attempted assassination.
Ortiz has since undergone six hours of surgery and is said to be in stable condition. He was shot in the back while out at a bar back in his hometown in the Dominican Republic.
Many have been sending their best to Big Papi as he recovers in the hospital, including Patriots quarterback Tom Brady, who sent out this Tweet earlier today:
Get well soon, Big Papi!
