Ortiz WAS the target, and it was over a woman.
I think so too, and Cesar the Abuser is probably living in a hole somewhere in the DR, or nearby, afraid to show his fat head.
I am sure that unless he fled with millions in a satchel he will be low on funds and unable to get to it.
And then there will be a snitch, who thinks he can pocket the reward and set himself up somewhere safe that will flip on him, or Cesar the idiot will make a big error himself and giveaway his safe house.
Pablo Escobar did, and Cesar has less money and friends and their egos and greed always take them down.
Cesar was at the hospital that night for a reason and when he found out Ortiz was protected he left. Smart move on the Red Socks to get Ortiz out of DR or Cesar would have finished the job.
Ortiz was swinging a bigger bat than the Abuser and probably hitting out of the park dingers with his woman.
