Chris Johnson has big game versus Pirates

by Kerry Kauffman | Thu, Mar 26th 8:46pm EDT

The Atlanta Braves scored five first-innings runs and defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday by the score of 7-5. Chris Johnson led the Braves with 3 hits, including a 2-run home run in the first inning. He finished the game 2-for-4 and is now batting .270 in Grapefruit League play.

Fantasy Impact:

Johnson had been struggling this spring prior to Thursday's game. He now has 4 RBI and 4 runs scored in 37 at bats. Johnson hit just .263 last season after hitting a career-high .321 in 2013. Johnson has a career batting average of .283 with a .738 OPS and should be a solid fantasy contributor this season.
