Marcell Ozuna Back Down To Eighth In Batting Order
2 years agoAtlanta Braves outfielder/designated hitter Marcell Ozuna is back down to the eighth spot in the club's batting order Tuesday as he takes on the Cincinnati Reds and right-hander Luis Cessa. This marks Ozuna's third start of the season hitting out of the eight-hole while he hasn't hit above sixth to this point in what marks his ninth start of the campaign Tuesday. It's not a total surprise as Ozuna has struggled out of the gate, going just 2-for-28 (.071), albeit with both hits coming as home runs. Despite a strong 15.2% BB% he's also struck out in 30.3% of his plate appearances and is without a multi-hit effort in nine appearances on the season.
