At 6-foot-8, 270 pounds, Johnson-Mullins is a lefty reliever with the size of an NFL lineman. He throws three pitches for strikes, and utilizes all three for out-pitches. He has an idea and presence. The big question mark: will he be able to limit the walks? With the inhibiting size, pitch repertoire, and control issues, he projects to be set-up reliever.
