Johnson is hitting .306 with one home run and three steals in 43 plate appearances with Triple-A Charlotte. His offense was not really the reason he was sent down earlier this month, but he is certainly putting on quite a display against Triple-A pitching. It's a small sample size, but he has six walks and six strikeouts so far with Charlotte and is getting on base at a .395 clip. If the White Sox become satisfied with Johnson's defense he should be back up with the big league club sometime this summer.

Johnson was optioned to Triple-A Charlotte on Thursday, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports. Johnson is hitting a respectable .270 on the season, but he has just two extra-base hits and three RBI in 27 games. While his range is decent defensively, the Sox will look to mix things up, and Carlos Sanchez, a superior defender, is expected to be the corresponding move.

Johnson is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Brewers, Doug Padilla of ESPN Chicago reports. Johnson will yield the start Wednesday to Emilio Bonifacio, who will bat second for the White Sox. He still sits at a respectable .270 average while reaching base at a .333 clip, and should continue to se everyday starts at second base.

Johnson is out of the lineup Sunday against the Reds. After sitting out the back end of Saturday's doubleheader, Johnson will be left on the bench for a second straight game, with Emilio Bonifacio picking up a start at the keystone. Johnson shouldn't be in danger of losing out on his regular starting role, as he's delivered a respectable .271 batting average and .329 on-base percentage in the first 24 games of his MLB career.

Johnson is out of the lineup for the second game of Saturday's doubleheader. He got the start and went 0-for-3 in the first half of the twin bill. Emilio Bonifacio will get the start at second base in the nightcap.

Johnson went 3-for-4 with a double and two runs scored in the White Sox's win over the Tigers on Wednesday. The trio of hits pushed his average back over the .280 mark, and his OBP is now back over .340. It's still a work in progress to get him base stealing opportunities, but at least he is getting on base, which should keep him on the MLB roster.

Johnson will lead off for the White Sox on Friday against the Twins, Dan Hayes of CSN Chicago reports. Johnson has mainly hit out of the ninth spot for the White Sox this season, but his .271/.340/.292 batting line there has earned him a spot atop the order on Adam Eaton's day off. It's unlikely that role will continue, however, as, Eaton will likely return to the lineup in the next couple days.

Johnson is out of the lineup for Friday's game against the Tigers, Colleen Kane of the Chicago Tribune reports. Johnson has now started just one of Chicago's three games against left-handed pitching, as he'll give way to Emilio Bonifacio on Friday for a matchup with Tigers ace David Price. While he's still the White Sox's primary second baseman, Johnson has only been in the lineup for six of the team's first nine games, and he still doesn't have a run, RBI or stolen base.

Johnson is out of the lineup Tuesday against the Indians. Johnson sat once last week against a lefty and will sit Tuesday against right-hander Carlos Carrasco, affording Emilio Bonifacio his first opportunity to start this season. While Johnson's bat has yet to head north from spring training (.188 average), the team has not suggested in any way that he's in danger of losing his primary role yet.

Johnson is in the lineup for Friday's game against left-handed Tommy Milone and the Twins. Carlos Sanchez got the nod at second base when the White Sox faced left-handed Danny Duffy on Wednesday, but Johnson will get his third start through the season's first four games Friday afternoon. While this doesn't appear to be a strict platoon situation, Johnson will likely get some days off against left-handed pitching. The White Sox have thus far used their starting second baseman in the No. 9 hole for every game.
