General manager Frank Wren said Martin Prado will be the Braves' second baseman in 2010.
"I think we watched Martin Prado become our everyday second baseman in the second half," said Wren. "And I think that going into spring training, there’s no reason to think anything’s changed." As Kelly Johnson struggled, Prado took the second base job and ran with it, batting .307/.358/.464 with 11 homers, 49 RBI and 38 doubles. His .822 OPS ranked fifth among major league second baseman in 2009. With multiple-position eligibility, he should have plenty of value in drafts next season. With Prado seemingly in the clear, look for the Braves to utilize Johnson as a trade chip.

Martin Prado was 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in his return to the lineup against the Nationals on Friday night.
He was scratched from Wednesday's lineup after getting struck in the knee by a line drive. Prado had an RBI single in the eighth and a solo home run in the ninth. He is batting .305/.350/.465 with 11 home runs and 49 RBI in 413 at-bats this season. He deserves to be the everyday second baseman in 2010.

Martin Prado was a late scratch Wednesday after getting hit with a line drive in the knee during batting practice.
The ball came off the bat of none other than Kelly Johnson, the man who Prado replaced in the starting lineup earlier this season. Johnson drew Wednesday's start. Consider Prado day-to-day until results of his MRI are released.

Martin Prado went 3-for-4 with two doubles and two RBI in a win over the Mets on Monday night.
Prado has been pounding the ball over the past week. In his past six games, he has gone 13-for-24 with seven doubles and a homer. His numbers are climbing again after he struggled through a hitting drought in late August and early September.

Martin Prado went 0-for-3 with a walk Saturday to drop his average below .300 for the first time since June 30.
Perhaps it's time to give Kelly Johnson another shot? He came back hot from the DL, but he hasn't started a game since Aug. 23. Prado's OBP since the All-Star break is under .300.

Martin Prado went 3-for-4 with a homer Sunday night against the Phillies.
Prado is regadining his stroke after being limited to two at-bats in nine days earlier this month. His production has been off this month, but the Braves seem set to stick with him as their primary second baseman.
