Braves among teams interested in Reed Johnson
Reed Johnson - OF - Atlanta Braves
Nov. 21, 2012 - 9:00 AM ET

Ken Rosenthal of FOXSports.com reports that free agent outfielder Reed Johnson is drawing interest from the Braves and "a number of other clubs."

Johnson batted .270 (27-for-100) in 43 games after coming over from the Cubs in July and the Braves apparently liked what they saw. The soon-to-be 36-year-old owns an .828 career OPS against southpaws and is capable of playing all three outfield positions, so he could be a useful bench player for pretty much anyone.
