The left-hander, who is part of a four-man 2015 Hall of Fame class, played eight seasons for the D-backs from 1999-2004 and 2007-08 and guided Arizona to its first and only World Series championship in 2001.
Johnson, who won four Cy Young awards with the D-backs from 1999-2002, will have his number retired by the team in August.
