Player Outlook
Marcell Ozuna had a resurgence in 2023 after two straight down years, and he was even better last season as he finished with 39 homers and a .302/.378/.546 slash line while playing in all 162 games for the first time in his career. His 154 wRC+ is the second-best mark of his career, trailing only the shortened 2020 campaign. He exclusively played designated hitter and is unlikely to see the outfield during 2025 in his age-34 season. Ozuna was the steadying force in an underwhelming and injury-plagued Atlanta offense last year, but there should be better support and more opportunities for counting stats in 2025. The veteran slugger has had some boom-or-bust tendencies in the past but has been one of the best hitters in baseball over the past two seasons, so it may be time to leave those reservations in the rearview mirror.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Slugs first spring homer

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 1-for-2 with a walk and a two-run home run in Tuesday's split-squad game against the Red Sox. The veteran slugger took Noah Davis deep in the fourth inning for his first long ball of the spring. Ozuna is heading into the final year of his current contract after Atlanta picked up his $16 million option for 2025 in November, and the 34-year-old could be in line for a big payday next winter despite his age if he puts together another strong campaign -- over the last two seasons, he boasts a .289/.364/.552 slash line with 79 homers and 204 RBI.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Option officially picked up

    Rotowire
    Atlanta exercised Ozuna's $16 million club option for 2025, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports. The transaction was a given after Ozuna batted .302/.378/.546 with 39 home runs and 104 RBI in 2024. He is a full-time designated hitter at this point in his career, having not played a single inning in the outfield this season, but Ozuna should be a middle-of-the-order force again in 2025 in what will be his age-34 season.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Option will be exercised

    Rotowire
    Atlanta president of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos said Friday that the team plans to exercise Ozuna's $16 million club option for 2025, Grant McAuley of 92.9 The Game Atlanta reports. The decision was a gimme after Ozuna slashed .302/.378/.546 with 39 home runs and 104 RBI in 2024. The veteran slugger didn't play a single inning in the outfield this season, so Jorge Soler will have to play the outfield in 2025 if Atlanta intends on him being a regular next season. It's not ideal from a defensive standpoint, but Atlanta wasn't going to let Ozuna walk after he was the team's best offensive player in 2024.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Three XBH in win

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, two doubles, two runs scored and two total RBI during Wednesday's 7-1 win over the Reds. Ozuna snapped a streak of 26 games without a home run, taking Tony Santillan yard in the seventh inning. In September, Ozuna is 17-for-56 (.304) with seven runs, two RBI and almost as many walks (10) as strikeouts (11).

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Another three hits in win

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 3-for-3 with a three-run homer, a walk and three runs scored in Saturday's win over the Angels. Ozuna crushed a hanging slider from Griffin Canning 437 feet over the wall in center field in his first at-bat to score Michael Harris and Austin Riley, giving the veteran slugger his 36th long ball of the campaign and his fifth this month. Ozuna added two leadoff singles in the contest, marking his second consecutive three-hit performance and his sixth multi-hit effort in his last 10 games overall. Over that latter stretch, he's batting .428 (18-for-42) with four homers, seven RBI and nine runs scored.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Racks up three hits in loss

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 3-for-4 with a walk and a run scored in Friday's 3-2 loss to the Angels. Ozuna was the only Atlanta batter to record multiple hits in the contest. He's shown no signs of slowing down in August, going 19-for-61 (.311) with four homers over 15 contests this month. He's up to a .302/.374/.580 slash line, 35 home runs, 90 RBI, 75 runs scored and 23 doubles across 122 games this season.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Mashes 33rd homer

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a walk, a home run and two RBI in Thursday's loss to the Brewers. It was a rough night for Atlanta overall in a 16-7 rout, but Ozuna did what he could with a solo shot in the seventh inning off Bryse Wilson and an RBI groundout in the eighth. The veteran slugger is up to 33 homers and 88 RBI on the season, and he's been on a rampage over the last month, slashing .323/.377/.656 in his last 25 games with 10 long balls, 15 RBI and 19 runs.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Goes yard Saturday

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 4-3 loss to Miami. Ozuna went four games without a homer, going 3-for-17 with nine strikeouts and no extra-base hits in that span. The 33-year-old slugger remains in second place in the National League for homers with 32 this year, one behind the Dodgers' Shohei Ohtani. For the season, Ozuna has added a stellar .300/.374/.583 slash line, 86 RBI, 69 runs scored, 20 doubles and no stolen bases through 110 contests.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Keeps slugging Monday

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 1-for-3 with a walk and a solo home run in Monday's loss to the Brewers. He opened the scoring in the game by taking Colin Rea deep in the fourth inning. Ozuna has homered in three of the last four games, boosting his total on the season to 31. Over the last 15 games he's slashing a blistering .382/.452/.818 with eight home runs, 10 RBI and 13 runs.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Homers again Monday

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and a walk in Monday's 8-3 loss to Milwaukee. Ozuna has homered in three of the last four games, and he's hit 10 long balls over 23 contests in July. The designated hitter is up to 31 homers, 83 RBI, 66 runs scored, 20 doubles and a .306/.384/.596 slash line through 105 games this season. Atlanta's trade for Jorge Soler from San Francisco on Monday shouldn't have much of an effect on Ozuna, as Soler will likely be the one to pick up playing time in the outfield.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Launches homer No. 30

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 4-0 win over the Mets. He took Tylor Megill deep in the fourth inning, the first of three solo shots by Atlanta off the right-hander. Ozuna has gone yard in back-to-back games to reach 30 on the season, and he's finishing July in style, slashing .404/.466/.827 over the last 14 contests with seven homers and nine RBI.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Slugs 29th homer

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 2-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's loss to the Mets. He drove an Eric Orze changeup over the left-field fence in the sixth inning, but Atlanta was already in an 8-2 hole at that point. Ozuna has somehow gotten even hotter at the plate in July, collecting multiple hits in nine of his last 13 games and batting .417 (20-for-48) over that stretch with six homers. The 33-year-old DH sits one long ball short of his third career 30-homer campaign, and 19 RBI shy of reaching triple digits for the third time.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Big power display against Cards

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 2-for-4 with two solo home runs in the second game of Saturday's doubleheader split against the Cardinals. After going 1-for-4 in the matinee, Ozuna piled up 855 feet worth of long balls off Sonny Gray in the nightcap, accounting for half of the four homers Atlanta slugged off the right-hander in a losing effort. Ozuna has hit safely in eight straight games, and through 62 plate appearances in July he's slashing .328/.355/.724 with seven home runs and 12 RBI. The 33-year-old needs to go yard twice more in 2024 to record the third 30-homer campaign of his career, and he's on pace to top the career-high 40 he launched just last season.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Goes yard twice in win

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a pair of solo home runs in Friday's 6-1 win over the Padres. This was Ozuna's fourth straight multi-hit game, and he's swatted five homers over his last eight contests. He put up Atlanta's first and last runs in the win. For the year, the slugger is up to 26 homers, 77 RBI, 57 runs scored, 20 doubles and a .301/.377/.584 slash line through 93 games. Ozuna hit a career-high 40 long balls last year and looks to have a decent chance to match that number in 2024.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Slugs 24th homer

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a two-run homer and two runs scored in Wednesday's loss to the Diamondbacks. The All-Star slugger singled in his first at-bat before coming home on a Travis d'Arnaud double in the second as Atlanta took an early 2-0 lead. Ozuna then launched a 441-foot home run in the eighth to score Austin Riley and tie the game at 5-5. It was Ozuna's second consecutive two-hit performance, and he's now fourth in the majors with 24 long balls on the season, and third in RBI with 75. He's batting .257 (9-for-35) in July with three homers, eight RBI and seven runs scored.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Goes deep again

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a double in Saturday's 5-1 win over the Phillies. Ozuna has homered in back-to-back games, and Saturday saw him produce his first multi-hit effort since June 23. The designated hitter has lost some consistency at the plate after hitting well early in June, but he's still a major power threat. Ozuna is slashing .298/.379/.571 with 23 homers, 72 RBI, 51 runs scored and 19 doubles across 87 contests this season.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Clubs 22nd homer

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 1-for-4 with a three-run home run in Friday's loss to the Phillies. The veteran slugger got hold of a 98.4 mph two-seamer from Jose Alvarado in the eighth inning, driving it 409 feet over the fence in right field. Ozuna snapped an 11-game homer drought with the blast -- tied for his longest dry spell of the year -- and while he has slowed down after a blistering start to the season, he's still slashing .296/.377/.560 through 86 contests with 22 homers and 70 RBI, with the latter mark tying him for the NL lead with Alec Bohm.

  • Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Collects three RBI in win

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 1-for-2 with a double, three RBI and a run scored in Friday's 6-1 victory over Pittsburgh. The veteran designated hitter faced Martin Perez in the third inning with the bases loaded and laced a bases-clearing double to push Atlanta's lead to 4-0. Ozuna kept his hot June cooking, as he entered this contest slashing .286/.369/.505 with five homers, 15 runs scored and 15 RBI over 103 plate appearances before this performance. The 33-year-old looks bound for his third All-Star appearance, as he's hitting .304 with 21 homers, 47 runs scored and 67 RBI total this season.

Ozuna hit one of three Atlanta homers in the fifth inning, cracking a two-run shot to center field. The long ball was Ozuna's 20th of the campaign, third-most in the majors. He's reached 20 homers in a season eight times in his career, including in each of the past three campaigns.

    Rotowire
    Ozuna went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and an additional run in a 5-2 win against Washington on Thursday.

It was the slugger's 18th long ball of the campaign, moving him into fourth place in the majors. Ozuna also ranks second with 55 RBI while slashing an excellent .312/.389/.611 through 252 plate appearances.
