Pirates Prospect Watch: Termarr Johnson Hits First Homer of the Year

Related Topics: Termarr Johnson

Termarr Johnson led off the game on Sunday for Greensboro with a home run.

The 2022 fourth overall pick hasn’t been hitting well this year in his second look at the High-A level, after a second half promotion in 2023. Johnson is batting .175/.369/.270, continuing to show an extreme walk rate and a lot of swing and miss from big cuts. The power hasn’t been there consistently, despite the three-true-outcomes style approach.

Johnson’s homer today was his third extra base hit of the season. He had a double and a triple last week across a two day stretch, and has had two singles and a home run since.
