Braves' Marcell Ozuna: Option officially picked up
Atlanta exercised Marcell 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
Atlanta president of baseball operations Alex Anthopoulos said Friday that the team plans to exercise Marcell 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.
