Marlins' Marcell Ozuna: Crushes third spring homer Friday

Ozuna went 2-for-3 with a walk and a three-run homer, his third blast of the spring, in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Nationals.

Ozuna is hitting .294 with a .618 slugging percentage in 34 spring at-bats, although his 1:8 BB:K suggests he's still got some work to do to get ready for Opening Day. The 26-year-old posted career bests in walk rate (7.1 percent) and strikeout rate (18.9 percent) last year, however, and further development of his plate discipline could allow him to take his game to the next level in 2017.
