Cardinals expect outfielder Ozuna to be ready for Opening Day

The St. Louis Cardinals are confident outfielder Marcell Ozuna will be ready for the upcoming season as he recovers from right shoulder surgery in October. Team president John Mozeliak met with Ozuna earlier this week in the Dominican Republic. Mozeliak said he looked strong, took batting practice and will begin his throwing program in early February. The team expects the outfielder to be full go by Opening Day.
