Baseball player
William Russell Johnson (born February 22, 1973) is an American former Major League Baseball infielder . He prepped at Denham Springs High School then went to Louisiana State University . He was drafted in the first round of the 1994 Major League Baseball Draft by the Houston Astros . In 1997 , he was called up to the majors by the Astros, where he remained until 2000 . His best season in Houston was 1999 , when he hit .282 with four home runs and 33 RBI .
Tampa Bay Devil Rays [ edit ]
In the middle of the 2000 season, Johnson was traded to the Tampa Bay Devil Rays for reliever Marc Valdes . He moved around several times during the next few years. With minor leaguer Josh Pressley, he was supplied by the Devil Rays in 2002 to the New York Mets as a PTBNL in a deal for Rey Ordóñez . He spent 2003 and 2004 in the minor leagues with the Mets' and Cubs' Triple-A teams respectively.
Return to Majors [ edit ]
He reached the majors again in 2005 , when he signed as a free agent with the New York Yankees .[1] He spent the year coming in off the bench as a first baseman , third baseman , pinch hitter , designated hitter , or outfielder . This made him the second "William Russell Johnson" to play for the Yankees. (Billy Johnson , who has the same first, middle, and last name, but is no relation, played for New York in the 1940s.)
In 2006 , he played for the Yankees Triple-A team, and led the International League in walk percentage (14.8%).[2] He spent 2007 in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization, where he hit a combined .261 in 106 games split between Double-A and Triple-A.
