2.12.17 - Johnson has a projectable 5-foot-11, 175-pound frame. Strike thrower. Repeatable simple delivery that he repeats well. Creates momentum with a rock back delivery into hip load. Slight pause reaching down after break into a sound arm action. He throws from a ¾ slot with good setup in his lower half to footstrike. Would like better backside involvement and intent as he begins to work downhill with nice backside in finish. That could help increase velo. His fastball is consistently 78-81, topping out at 83 with some late run. He shows command for his breaking ball with 12/6 action. His change-up is 73-75 with fastball arm speed and some fade. Very interesting pitching prospect.
