The Orioles selected Johnson's contract from Triple-A Norfolk on Saturday, Andy Kostka of TheBaltimoreBanner.com reports.
Johnson will provide some outfield depth for Baltimore as Cedric Mullins (neck) nurses a minor injury. Johnson replaces Coby Mayo on the active roster. Johnson hasn't appeared in an MLB game since 2021 and the 28-year-old is slashing .259/.320/.448 in 500 plate appearances with Norfolk this season.
