Enjoy top plays from Miami Marlins first baseman Troy Johnston!

Johnston earned Marlins Minor League Player of the Year honors for his brilliant age-26 season with the Double-A Pensacola Blue Wahoos and Triple-A Jacksonville Jumbo Shrimp. In 134 games played, he slashed .307/.399/.549 (145 wRC+) with 26 HR and 24 SB. He also had 116 RBI, which led all of Minor League Baseball in 2023.

The Gonzaga University product fell all the way to the 17th round of the 2019 MLB Draft. He’s been the most productive hitter in the Marlins farm system ever since. With nothing else to prove in the upper minors, Johnston is poised to make his major league debut at some point next season.

Where would you rank Johnston among the top prospects in the Marlins organization?

    If Bell opts out and leaves, he should get 1st crack at starting 1B. Even if he doesn’t opt out , Johsnon should be on the team getting regular ABs.

      Agreed. I’m also curious to see what he’d look like in LF occasionally. He was an outfielder before converting to 1B and added more agility this past year than he used to have. It’s easier to get him on the roster if he is usable in multiple spots.
