Josh Johnson left Monday's start against the Braves after six innings due to skin irritation on his right middle finger. In other words, he has a blister. The Marlins are calling it a precautionary move, and they expect Johnson to be fine for his next start. He was dominant before exiting, tossing six scoreless innings while allowing just one hit and striking out nine. The Marlins could trade Johnson this month.
