The Pittsburgh Pirates announced Sunday that two of their top prospects will be finding themselves in new uniforms, as Termarr Johnson was promoted to Double-A Altoona, while Michael Kennedy is moving up to high-a Greensboro.
Johnson was slow out of the gates coming out of Spring, but after a productive June that saw him earn a selection to the Futures Game during All-Star weekend, the 20-year old infielder has put together an impressive campaign with the Grasshoppers. Boasting an OBP of .372 with 46 RBIs and 13 homers saw Johnson take the next step that fans were waiting on since he was drafted.
