Jim Johnson (RP, ATL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed Leagues, NL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 45% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Veteran closer Jim Johnson has generated 56.8% ground balls this year. His 93.1 MPH two-seam fastball and 78.8 MPH curveball are getting the job done with about a strikeout per inning. Additionally, opponents are hitting just .239 against Johnson. The rebuild for the Braves and the consistent ground ball rates are encouraging reasons to claim the vet off the waiver wire.
