Florida Marlins right hander, Josh Johnson, is trying to secure a long term deal with the Marlins despite the rumors that he’s on the trading block.  According to The Sporting News, Johnson and his agent, Matt Sosnick, are trying to secure a 4 year deal however the Marlins are offering 3 years.  The 25 year old Johnson had a 15-5 record with a 3.23 ERA in 2009 with the Marlins.  He’s eligible for arbitration, and should expect a good raise given his success last season.
