FACTS/FLUKES: Johnson, Martinez, Ellis, Minor, Ramirez

Road to recovery bumpy for Johnson ... Josh Johnson (RHP, MIA) supposedly entered the year healthy, having recovered from a bum shoulder that cost him much of last season. But so far, his 1-3 record, 5.36 ERA and a couple of very rocky starts is disconcerting for owners who expected him to bounce back from shoulder problems and be something close to the Cy Young contender he was in 2010.
