Rangers, Reds, Pirates Eyed as Top Free Agent Fits for Marcell Ozuna
Marcell Ozuna, 35, a DH/outfielder for the Atlanta Braves, hit 21 HRs in 2025 and averaged 39.5 HRs/102 RBIs from 2023-24. If he leaves Atlanta as a free agent, ideal fits include the Pittsburgh Pirates, Cincinnati Reds, and Texas Rangers. The Pirates, last in MLB in runs/HRs in 2025, need his power. The playoff-contending Reds, 21st in HRs, seek more offensive "oomph." The Rangers, despite a strong rotation, were 26th in slugging/22nd in runs, making Ozuna a crucial addition for lineup clarity and slugging. He offers a veteran power threat.
