According to the team's official Web site, the Braves have placed Johnson on the disabled list with tendinitis in his right wrist.
Advice: Johnson has really struggled at the plate lately, going 1 for 28 (.036) over his last 12 games and losing the regular starting job at second base to Martin Prado. He'll have to wait until after the All-Star break to try to reclaim his spot.

Johnson has been placed on the 15-day DL with right wrist tendinitis, MLB.com's Mark Bowman reports.
Recommendation: Martin Prado will continue to serve as the Braves' regular second baseman, while Brooks Conrad was called up from Triple-A Gwinnett to take Johnson's place on the active roster.
