Braves manager Brian Snitker has held his first team meeting, pitchers are taking fielding practice and Ronald Acuña is hitting batting practice homers over the batter’s eye. 
Spring training is underway. 
In this edition of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s Braves Report podcast, Justin Toscano and Jay Black are joined by AJC columnist Michael Cunningham to discuss what they saw during the team’s first official practice of the season. 
Our crew will also provide its thoughts on the shortstop battle, some of the early spring training injuries to the pitchers and what to expect from Marcell Ozuna.
