Johnson.
If there is a runoff for a position - like say # 33 - the winner should get # 33, the loser should get # 34 and the next poll should be for number # 35, IMHO. Just a thought.
This is a conversation we have ever year. It turns out that when we start the next ballot with the loser of the runoff vote going against the other prospects, the loser of the runoff vote doesn't necessarily win the next poll. Therefore, it's probably a better representation of RedsZone to do it this way.

Johnson, based on the Reds' seeming to fast track him. My only concern is that his IP jumped from 48 to 129 last year.

Johnson. He should probably be higher.
I thought reports on Johnson were fairly positive as it related to "stuff". Low 90's fastball, decent breaking stuff, work to do on a change-up. Am I remembering him or someone else?
I'm curious about Johnson--why are the Reds fast-tracking him? What, specifically, did they see? His numbers don't jump out at me, but apparently there's something there if they're going to move him up at age 20.
He's reputed to be extremely coachable, bright, great makeup, all that sort of thing. Plus, it would seem that his body is pretty mature. It all adds up to just being ready for it, I suppose.
