The Dodgers have just made an under-the-radar signing this afternoon. Per a press release from the independent league ballclub St. Paul Saints, the Dodgers have purchased the contract of former Cardinals first baseman, ten-year major league veteran and recently converted pitcher Dan Johnson:
Dan Johnson has worked hard to reinvent himself this season as a knuckleball pitcher. The former Major League hitter has made great strides this season, in a short amount of time, as a pitcher with the St. Paul Saints. He will now get the chance to get back to the Major League’s as a hurler.
