Despite rumors to the contrary, David Ortiz says he's happily retired from baseball and has no plans for a return.

"My playing time has already expired," Ortiz said.

The 41-year-old said he is not physically preparing to play baseball this offseason.

"Baseball is not something that you wake up today and you say, 'I'll play tomorrow,'" Ortiz said "Baseball is something that carries a lot of sacrifice, a lot of preparation, and there is a reason why we train the entire year to play it, practice every day, especially during the season, because it is a sport of consistency."
