Fan favorite David Ortiz hit his 31st home run of the season on Wednesday night, and he is closing in on a 100 RBI season. However, despite his productivity at the plate, there’s many questions regarding his future in Boston.

“If I’m not here I’ll be somewhere, I guarantee you that,” Ortiz said.

Ortiz has a $12 million team option for 2012 with no buyout, and The Providence Journal’s Daniel Barbarisi says the Red Sox could either decline the option or try to work out a new deal. Ortiz wants a multiple-year contract, but has not heard from the team as to what their future plans for the DH are.

“Sometimes I feel like I’m part of the family, and I’m going to stick around longer, but I’m not the one who makes that decision. I’m not the one who makes that move. I’m trying to do my job and hopefully take care of that after the season,” Ortiz said.

Ortiz signed a four-year, $52 million extension at the start of the 2006 season, and he doesn’t want to take a pay cut moving forward, according to WEEI’s Mike Petreglia.

“I don’t feel like going anywhere else but if I have to, I have no choice,” Ortiz said. “We’ll see, we’ll see how things go. We’ll see. I took a pay cut already, five years ago. That’s some homework for you.”
