Johnson (2-3) picked up the win in Thursday's 12-11 extra-inning victory over the Reds, striking out one in 1.1 perfect relief innings.
Scouting Report
Has great movement on his fastball, plus enough off-speed pitches to keep hitters off-kilter. Owns a solid frame for the big leagues. Needs to strengthen his legs, since he already has a history of lower-body issues. Could stand to improve his changeup for best results in MLB.
Long Range Potential: Inconsistent reliever.
