Marlins outfielder Marcell Ozuna underwent successful surgery on his left thumb Friday bringing his season to an end, according to MLB.com. Ozuna will need six to eight weeks of recovery, and is not expected to push his recovery up so he can return for the final few weeks of the season.
Ozuna hit .265 with a .692 OPS in 275 at-bats for the Marlins as a rookie, and is expected to be read in time for the beginning of next season. He will likely battle for a spot in the outfield during spring training.
