Uncommitted Prospect Spotlight: 2019 C Daniel Johnson


Jordon Banfield
Arizona Scouting Director

Throughout the year PBR will put the spotlight on a number of uncommitted prospects who show the necessary tools to play at the next level. 2019 Daniel Johnson from Mesquite HS was solid at the Preseason All-State Games and has performed well this spring while handling a pitching staff loaded wth D1 arms. We are excited to see more from him this summer. As always, contact [email protected] or direct message @PBRArizona on Twitter with any questions and/or commitment information.
