Braves OF Marcell Ozuna Was Arrested on Aggravated Assault and Battery

SJ - May 30, 2021

Braves outfielder Marcell Ozuna was arrested on Saturday and is facing agravated assault with strangulation and battery charges. The arrest comes after an alleged incident with his wife.

Ozuna is currently on the disabled list after fracturing two of his fingers. He's expected to miss at least six weeks due to the injury. That could now be extended if he was to be suspended by the MLB.

Marcell Ozuna, who is on the injured list with two broken fingers, signed a four-year, $65 million contract with Atlanta this offseason. He is a two-time All-Star who finished sixth in National League MVP voting last year.

I would imagine Ozuna is going to face a lengthy suspension for this. But nothing would surprise me with the people currently running Major League Baseball.

They didn't do anything to players who cheated to win a World Series. So anything is on the table here.
