Before he ever signed a professional contract, there was a lot of hype built up around the Pirates 2022 first round pick, Termarr Johnson. Some media outlets put out some pretty lofty comparisons, and deemed him one of the best prep hitters to come out the draft in recent history.

So, it was a little concerning that he struggled out the gate the way he did.

Recently, on June 14, Johnson had a career day, going 4-for-4 and reaching base all six times he came to the plate. He fell a triple short of the cycle, while also picking up a pair of doubles.
