The latest MLB trade rumor regarding the Red Sox is food for thought.
Boston is considered one of the “best fits” for Atlanta Braves designated hitter Marcell Ozuna, according to ESPN’s Jeff Passan and Kiley McDaniel.
“Ozuna is a stone-cold DH, playing two games in the field in 2023 as his last regular-season experience defensively,” the duo wrote Tuesday. “Ozuna is also in a contract year, but his power numbers are down a notch from his standout .302 average and 39-homer performance last season. His on-base percentage remains among the highest of potential trade candidates.
