Steve Johnson goes four scoreless
Steve Johnson - R - Baltimore Orioles
March 17, 2013 - 4:10 PM ET

Steve Johnson tossed four scoreless innings Sunday against the Twins.

Johnson was a nice surprise for the Orioles last year, but he entered camp seemingly behind guys like Jake Arrieta, Zach Britton, Brian Matusz and perhaps even Jair Jurrjens in line for the last spot in Baltimore's rotation. Nothing has been ruled out yet, but it'd probably make more sense to go with one of the higher-upside guys initially and keep Johnson available as a swingman. They'll all likely get chances eventually.
