Brian Johnson (illness) has been confirmed as the starting pitcher for Thursday's spring game against the Twins, according to Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com. (Chris Cotillo on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

Johnson has been battling an illness but looks to be feeling better and ready to get on the mound. The veteran lefty will work mainly out of the bullpen in 2019 and may see the occasional start. Unless some injuries occur and Johnson can win a permanent starting role then he will not be fantasy relevant.
