Braves Not Giving Up On Marcell Ozuna
4 years agoThe Atlanta Braves haven't given up on re-signing outfielder Marcell Ozuna. There's a difference in dollars, but they have yet to replace the right-handed slugger and he still doesn't have a team with spring training just two weeks away. Ozuna's potential return also became more uncertain with the revelation that National League teams will not use the designated hitter this year. He's a bit of a defensive liability in the outfield, but his bat may make up for those defensive shortcomings. With payroll uncertainty in Atlanta, the Braves could try to re-sign Ozuna to another short-term deal. After nearly winning the Triple Crown last year with the Braves, the 30-year-old is a top-15 fantasy outfielder and top-50 overall player for fantasy heading into the 2021 season.
