Carson Johnson brings swing-and-miss stuff and ace-energy to SDSU’s rotation
In the 2026 season, San Diego State right-hander Carson Johnson flashed big-time upside by earning Mountain West Pitcher of the Week after a first collegiate start in which he struck out a career-high 11 batters in 7-plus innings and was working on a no-hitter deep into the game.[1][2] The 6-foot-4 Arizona transfer showed he can miss bats and hold velocity deep into outings, and his early-season results suggest real rotation value for a team that wants a power arm with confidence on the mound.[1][2]
