Infielders: Freddie Freeman, Jace Peterson, Erick Aybar, Adonis Garcia, Gordon Beckham, Kelly Johnson.
Outfielders: Nick Markakis, Ender Inciarte, Hector Olivera, Jeff Francoeur, Drew Stubbs.
Catchers: A.J. Pierzynski, Tyler Flowers.
Note: The Braves are carrying an extra (eighth) reliever initially because they don’t need a fifth starter until April 12 in the seventh game of the season. At that point they plan to bring up starter Jhoulys Chacin from Triple-A and subtract a reliever to be determined.
