In 2007 and 2008, KJ had .800 OPS seasons with the Braves. In 2009, he had an injury-riddled season that caused his stock to drop on everyone's draft sheets. In 2010, he's hitting lead-off for the Diamondbacks and is absolutely crushing the ball. He should easily post a career-high in homers (just hit his 7th today) and plate close to 100 times. It is absolutely criminal he is owned in only 49% of Yahoo leagues. If Kelly Johnson is floating around on your WW, you need to pick him up now. I could easily see him becoming this year's Aaron Hill.

Funny thing is, his career arc seems to be on the same path as that of Aaron Hill.
Too bad I only have Kelly Johnson as a late round flier in just one league where I have him as a sub most times to Gordon Beckham, as I do think he'll have a decent year. I had him pegged for 15 HR and he's about halfway home there. Realistically, I don't see him keeping up a Hill '09 pace or coming close though, but I'm enjoying the superb production.

Drafted him real late to be my bench inf --good move. Rollins went down and havent missed a beat! Fielder and Quentins power outage has hardly hurt me thanks to Kelly!
