JOHN DREKER: Termarr Johnson, 2B, Bradenton (A)

On the same day the Pirates made the first overall pick in the 2023 draft, their 2022 first round pick wrapped up the pre All-Star portion of his first full season in baseball. Termarr Johnson is hitting .230/.397/.403 over 59 games. There have been some good signs and some minor red flags to his season so far.

Johnson just turned 19 years old last month, so that’s important to remember when looking at his performance. He also missed almost all of Spring Training, plus the start of the season, due to a hamstring injury.
