Why this deal got done:
Samson acknowledged on Thursday that he was against a four-year deal for the pitcher.
``I was not in favor of a fourth year because, from a risk standpoint, for us, it's always what is the risk and the reward,'' Samson said.
But Samson said team owner Jeffrey Loria eventually stepped into the debate and issued the order to offer Johnson a fourth year.
Said Samson: ``Jeffrey called me and said, `David, I appreciate your advice. But I don't accept it. And Josh is going to be on this team for well over a decade. We'd like for him to go into the Hall of Fame as a Marlin.' ''
