2007

A draft-eligible Wichita State sophomore who underwent Tommy John surgery in 2005, Kristofer Johnson healed quickly and was the 40th overall pick last June. Limited to short stints, he made a nice debut at Lowell, generating a ton of groundballs and missing a fair share of bats while showing good velocity for a lefty.
