Charlie Culberson reports to Braves camp

Here's a quick look at some key spring dates to remember for the Atlanta Braves.

Charlie Culberson reported early for Braves camp Monday, leaving Nick Markakis as the last veteran to arrive.

Pitchers and catchers reported on Friday, though many came a few days earlier. Position players aren’t required to report until Wednesday, a day before full-squad workouts.

Culberson enters spring with a more defined role than a year ago. He’s the Braves’ super-versatile piece, playing all over the infield and outfield as needed. He’ll share that utilityman honor with Johan Camargo this time around.

The Braves open Grapefruit League play Saturday in Port St. Lucie against the Mets.
