7-5-13 - Cobi Johnson, RHP, James Mitchell HS (FL) - At 6’-4” and 180
pounds, the right-hander has the ideal size for a frontline starter. His
fastball has touched 93 mph, and he adds a solid curveball. His change-up, like
most prep pitchers, is still developing, but he shows a good feel for pitching, and his athleticism
will help with his progression. He has shown very good command of his stuff and
had 103 K/14 BB over 71 innings as a junior. He also hit .426/.508/.703 over 30
games with 18 stolen bases. His velocity does drop off in later innings, but he
should gain more stamina as he fills out his frame. Committed to Florida State.

RHP, Mitchell HS (FL) - 6'4/185, Draft Day Age: 18.58, Florida State commit -
Quick Take: Johnson has been a little tough for scouts to see so far as he's
only pitched a few innings this summer to save his arm, wise counsel from his
father: Blue Jays pitching coordinator Dane Johnson. I've been told Cobi has
been sitting 90-93 and hitting 95 mph with a curveball that flashes plus
potential from a smooth delivery and a super projectable 6'4 frame. http://sbb.scout.com/2/1310090.html

Mitchell HS (Fla.): The son of former big leaguer Dane Johnson, the big
right-hander was very efficient, throwing just 28 pitches over three innings.
He showed a very good breaking ball, had excellent command and threw everything
downhill. http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20130806&content_id=56048786&vkey=news_mlb&c_id=mlb

8-13-13 - The Perfect Game All-American Classic in San Diego - * I was
really impressive with Cobi Johnson (Mitchell High School, Fla.), sitting 90-92
with a very good change and above-average breaking ball. His delivery is very
simple and clean, and I think there’s projection for more. Keep Johnson’s name
in the back of your head as a guy who could rise up draft boards this year. http://mlbdraftinsider.com/2013/08/thoughts-on-perfect-game-all-american-classic/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter

- Saw the athleticism & projection that makes Cobi Johnson a
prospect for #mlbdraft Unique delivery, threw strikes from 87-91 FB, 77 BKB
8-15-13 - Under Armour All-Star Game – Cobi Johnson, RHP: Johnson is also the son of a former MLB
pitcher, Dane Johnson, and while he doesn't yet throw as hard as some of the
top players on this list (tops out at 93), he's 6'4", 180 lbs. so there is
plenty of room for growth and to add strength.
As you might expect from a son of a former MLB pitcher, Johnson has the
feel and pitchability you want along with advanced command for a high school
arm. http://www.chicagonow.com/cubs-den/2013/08/2014-mlb-draft-ua-game-roster-and-preview-plus-more-tickets-and-meet-up-information/

B/R – 11-21-13 - 29. Atlanta Braves: Cobi Johnson, RHP, Mitchell HS
(Fla.) - As the son of Blue Jays pitching coordinator Dane Johnson, Cobi’s
workload has been limited as an amateur as he’s presumably saving his arm
strength to make a strong impression in the spring. At 6’4”, 185-pound
right-hander, Johnson’s frame is the epitome of projectable with room to fill
out physically and add strength. His fastball registers at 90-93 mph, and he’s
reportedly popped up to 95 mph, while his curveball already flashes plus
potential despite its overall immaturity. He’ll require considerable time to
develop in the minor leagues, but the huge upside could be worth the wait. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1860341-2014-mlb-mock-draft-early-first-round-projections-for-all-30-teams/page/10
12-9-13 – Pine Tar Press - 43- RHP Cobi Johnson J.W. Mitchell HS
(Florida State Commit) He is the son of former big leaguer Dane. His dad still
works in the game as a roving instructor with the Blue Jays. Right now he is a
6’4 kid with a lanky build who throws around 90 with 2 potentially solid
secondary pitches. But, his calling card is his smooth delivery that can be
credited to his dad. (OUt of first round- Braves selection) http://pinetarpress.com/early-look-2014-mlb-draft/
