Johnson gave up two runs on seven hits, while striking out eight over 5.1 innings against the Cubs on Friday afternoon.
Recommendation: The command hasn't quite been there just yet for Johnson, but he's had pretty good stuff (18 strikeouts in 17 innings over the three starts) and has held his own since coming off the DL. At this point, he appears to be healthy and there's definitely some value to be had here given the Marlins' position in the race for a playoff berth.
