Red Sox Pick Brian Johnson



With their second first-round pick, the Boston Red Sox picked lefthander Brian Johnson from Florida with the 31st-overall pick, the last of the first round.

Johnson has a physical build and pounds the strike zone with four average offerings. He has plenty of big-game experience and should move through the minor leagues quickly.

Johnson joins the Red Sox other first-rounder Deven Marrero as Florida prep products who were also teammates with Team USA's College National Team this summer.
