The Marlins have made it clear that Mike Stanton is untouchable during initial trade talks for Gio Gonzalez. Earlier this week it was reported that the Marlins were not convinced that Oakland would be willing to part with Gonzalez since he'll be under team control through 2015. However, the Athletics could still hold out for a premium deal involving prospects. There have also been conflicting reports as to whether Logan Morrison is available or whether any package containing him has already been ruled out. The Dan Haren trade from 2007, which netted five prospects for Oakland, is being used as a comparison.
