The Cleveland Indians have an interesting piece in Chris Johnson. Johnson, 31 in a week, batted .321 just two seasons ago when he nearly won the National League batting crown. That success, however, did not carry over into 2014, and he has been a shell of his former self and barely better than a replacement player ever since. Given these struggles, the Atlanta Braves and Cleveland Indians swapped ugly contracts in July, and Johnson has played fairly well in limited results with the Tribe.
In just over 75 plate appearances, the right-handed batter has gotten on base 36% of the time while posting low power numbers.
