Blue Jays, Giants Interested In Marcell Ozuna
4 years agoThe Toronto Blue Jays and San Francisco Giants have both shown interest in free-agent outfielder Marcell Ozuna, according to sources. The Blue Jays appear to have George Springer ahead of Ozuna on their preference list. The Giants interest is contingent on whether the National League has the designated hitter in 2021, as the 30-year-old Ozuna was Atlanta's primary DH in 2020. He made 39 of his 60 starts as the Braves DH last season, in which he led the league in home runs (18) and RBI (66) while hitting .338 with a 1.067 OPS. The Giants ranked fourth in baseball with an .862 OPS from their outfielders, but they had the fourth-lowest OPS (.596) at the DH spot. Toronto ranked third in outfield OPS (.873). Ozuna will be a popular outfield target in fantasy in 2021 drafts after his excellent season in Atlanta, albeit in a shortened campaign.
