John Logan Forsythe (born January 14, 1987) is a professional baseball second baseman for the Los Angeles Dodgers of Major League Baseball (MLB). He previously played for the San Diego Padres and Tampa Bay Rays. While primarily a second baseman, Forsythe has been a utility player for the majority of his career, playing every position except for center field, as well as pitcher and catcher.
Prior to playing professionally, Forsythe played college baseball for the University of Arkansas. He also competed for the United States national baseball team in the 2007 Pan American Games.
Forsythe was recruited from Christian Brothers High School to play college baseball at the University of Arkansas under coach Dave van Horn. Forsythe's mother also attended Arkansas. Forsythe intended to take a medical redshirt in 2006, but entered a game after an early-season injury. He singled in his first two games as a Razorback, and continued to start 24 games his freshman year. The freshman also won a game in the 11th inning with a walk-off single for the Hogs, entering as a pinch hitter. Forsythe added over 150 points to his batting average his sophomore year, with 4 home runs and 29 RBI. He also led the team in steals with 18.
Forsythe was a part of Team USA in summer of 2007, finishing with a silver medal in the Pan Am Games. The junior was named a third-team pre-season All-American, and also named to USA Baseball’s pre-season Golden Spikes Award Watch list.
