Retired Boston Red Sox icon David Ortiz has vowed “Big Papi will be back soon” following a bungled assassination attempt in his native Dominican Republic.

Ortiz, 43, also known as “Big Papi,” was released from Massachusetts General Hospital on Friday after he was shot and wounded at a club in Santo Domingo on June 9.

The legendary slugger on Monday thanked his medical team in a statement through a spokesperson.

“They are some of the best teammates I have ever had,” Ortiz said of the doctors, nurses and caregivers who worked on him at Massachusetts General Hospital.

Ortiz also expressed his gratitude to Red Sox ownership.

“My deep appreciation goes to John and Linda Henry, Tom Werner, Sam Kennedy and the entire Red Sox organization for arranging the Red Sox plane that took me back to Boston from Santo Domingo and their continuing assistance to me and my family,” Ortiz said.

Ortiz says he plans to spend the next few weeks recovering.

“I am feeling good but know I need to do my rehab just like I did when I was recovering from injuries playing baseball,” he said, adding, “Big Papi will be back soon.”

Also on Monday, Ortiz made his first social media post since he was shot, saying he was relieved to be back at home.

“Being at home and look at my family celebrating that Im here safe is priceless…Thank for all the prayers…Too bad I can’t crush food yet,” the World Series champ posted in a caption along with a trio of photos showing a plethora of food, including a steak on a grill.

Ortiz was sitting at an outdoor bar with friends in Santo Domingo last month when he was shot in the back by a would-be assassin on a motorcycle in an apparent case of mistaken identity.

More than a dozen people have been nabbed in the botched hit.
