Summary
Troy Johnston, the Rockies’ 28-year-old breakout star, is crushing it in the majors—where preparation is simpler than in the minors because big-league pitchers stick to their game plans, unlike unpredictable minor league arms. He’s leading the NL in batting average and doubles, smacking breaking balls with authority and driving in homers and doubles, though he’s struggling slightly against fastballs—mostly due to facing more lefties. By fouling off fastballs, he’s forcing pitchers to throw breaking balls, where he thrives. He’s laser-focused on mastering both pitches and staying grounded, knowing even eight strong weeks can build a legendary season.
