Lead off hitter-what about platoon at second?

The Braves need a better idea at lead off.  KJ is a good player but is not a traditional lead off hitter.  Yunel would be better like Ramirez in FLA but if that is unlikely how about platooning Prada and Johnson at second?  Blanco has proved he can hit up here and we are back to the platoon in left, why not second.  Johnson OBP is not good enough for a lead off hitter.  Prada can hit and I keep hearing "he has nothing left to prove in the minors"  give him a shot against lefties and let's see if it works like left field.  I realize it is still Apr. but against lefties which we seem to get a ton of, we are not hitting at all.
