Mark Bowman looks at three major topics of conversation as Braves camp begins this week. One of the most popular topics will be the emergence of a designated hitter, a role which has been discussed for Marcel Ozuna, Johan Camargo, or Austin Riley. The Braves are flush with candidates, but who settles into the role on a regular basis remains to be seen.
Putting Duvall in left and using Ozuna as the DH against left-handers is a perfect plan. The plan against right-handers is not as clear cut because of the defensive concerns. One option would be to put Johan Camargo in left field on those days.
