Pierce Johnson News
The Colorado Rockies agreed to a one-year, $5 million deal with right-hander Pierce Johnson on Tuesday. Johnson will help bolster the team's right-handed relief corps. The 31-year-old went to high school in Colorado before going to Missouri State and becoming a first-round selection by the Cubs in 2012. He posted a 5.02 ERA with 21 strikeouts and eight walks in 14 1/3 relief innings for the San Diego Padres. Johnson was out from late April until September due to right-elbow tendonitis. In five big-league seasons, he has gone 10-9 with a 4.05 ERA in 140 appearances. Johnson held a key role with the Friars in 2020 and 2021, going 6-5 with a 3.09 ERA, 104 K's and 36 walks in 78 2/3 frames. He won't have much fantasy value, if any, in most leagues.
San Diego Padres pitcher Pierce Johnson (elbow) is traveling to Peoria on Thursday to begin a rehab assignment with the team's rookie-level Arizona Complex League affiliate. He has been sidelined since April 22 due to right elbow tendinitis. The 31-year-old owned a 4.50 ERA, 1.67 WHIP, and 11 strikeouts over six innings in 2022. Barring any setback, he could return to San Diego's bullpen in September. Johnson could be used in a high-leverage role for the Padres once he's officially activated and is someone to monitor in leagues that reward the category saves and holds.
San Diego Padres relief pitcher Pierce Johnson (elbow) will be placed on the 10-day injured list with elbow tendinitis. The team is calling up left-handed pitcher Ray Kerr to fill his roster spot. Johnson has been one of the Padres' top setup men early on this year with appearances in six games. He had a disastrous inning against the Atlanta Braves last Friday, allowing three earned runs and taking the loss for the game. However, outside that appearance, he's pitched five scoreless innings while compiling five holds.
