The Braves are open to trading some of their players and the Rockies have contacted them about infielder Martin Prado, according to a source. Colorado scouted Prado extensively last season and they view him as a starting second baseman who could occupy a run-producing spot in the lineup. The clubs have not yet exchanged names, but are expected to keep the lines of communication open. Atlanta is believed to be looking for help in the outfield.
