By Greg Lee, Globe Staff
Boston Red Sox slugger David Ortiz said Thursday he is in good health and expects to return to the lineup Saturday, welcome news for a team reeling from a string of injuries.
''My health is fine. The doctors have told me to rest today and practice Friday so I can be ready to return to the playing field on Saturday,'' he told private radio station Z-101 in the Dominican Republic.
