Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald reports that Marlins owner Jeffrey Loria will make young slugger Marcell Ozuna available via trade in the coming offseason. Disappointed in Ozuna’s play and handling of a demotion to AAA, Loria is said to be willing to deal the outfielder available for young, controllable, starting pitching. After a breakout 2014 season which saw him hit 269/.317/.455 with 23 homers, Ozuna regressed to hit just .249/.296/.368 with eight homers in limited time with the big club this year. Ozuna is capable of playing above average defence at all 3 outfield spots and at 24 years old still holds plenty of upside.
