Notre Dame’s emerging left-handed bat with real lineup value
Johnson looks like a useful Notre Dame piece because he has already shown on-base impact and run production, posting a .281/.492/.429 line with seven homers and 28 RBIs in the 2024-25 season while earning more starts as a DH and moving into a leadership role.[3][2] He brings a contact-and-damage profile with some pop, plus the added value of catching/outfield versatility, which makes him a practical fit for a team that wants a bat with flexibility and clubhouse maturity.[3][2]
