The Dodgers acquired Micah Johnson from the White Sox on Dec. 17, 2015 along with outfielder Trayce Thompson and pitcher Frankie Montas as part of a three-team trade that send Scott Schebler, Jose Peraza and Brandon Dixon to the Reds. Here is a look at Johnson’s first year in the Dodgers organization.
What went right
Reached the majors twice in 2016, called up for a few days in April, then again for the final two weeks of the regular season in September and October.
Johnson expanded his defensive repertoire this year. He played exclusively second base in four years as a professional before joining the Dodgers, but in Triple-A Oklahoma City played 25 games in left field, 16 games in center and even two games at third base.
