Will Braves ship Marcell Ozuna to Mariners in 1-for-1 trade?

As the Atlanta Braves continue their downward spiral, the trade deadline offers an opportunity to replenish their farm system.

The Braves are a dozen games out of the last Wild Card playoff spot and have lost five of their previous six games. With the trade deadline only two days away, the Braves are looking to unload players on expiring contracts, like three-time All-Star Marcell Ozuna.

Ozuna can veto any trade, but has already stated he would accept a trade to any team that would guarantee playing time. With that in mind, Just Baseball's Jay Staph and Ryan Finkelstein predict that the Braves will trade Ozuna to the Seattle Mariners in exchange for pitching prospect Michael Morales.
