Camargo determined to seize second chance at 3B for Braves. MORE:

has a second chance to be the Atlanta Braves' starting third baseman.

Freeman added Camargo “got put in a tough position last year” after Atlanta signed Donaldson to a one-year deal. Camargo has lost about 15 pounds this off-season, when his workout regime in Tampa caught Snitker's attention, especially when he saw video of the infielder “swinging that mallet against the big tire or whatever.”

Camargo said he's still working on his strength but also has stressed renewed speed and quickness this off-season. He looks more like the player who spent much of his time at shortstop at the start of his career. Riley looked like the team's third baseman of the future during his hot start last season. He set a modern day franchise record by hitting five homers in his first nine games. Playing in left field, he hit .257 with 16 homers in his first 47 games.
