Martín Prado (born October 27, 1983 in Maracay, Venezuela) is a professional baseball player who currently plays for the Atlanta Braves.
Prado made his major league debut on April 23, 2006, going 1 for 2 and logging a triple. He was later sent down to the AAA Richmond Braves, but has recently been called back up to the majors.
