Miami Marlins, Dee Gordon not close on contract extension talks

The Miami Marlins and Dee Gordon have embarked once again on contract extension talks in the hopes of getting a deal done. Last week, we discussed the possibility of a short extension lasting only through arbitration, but it sounds as though both sides are looking to go a little longer. From Jon Heyman of CBS Sports:

The Marlins and Dee Gordon are taking about a possible very long deal that could keep Gordon in Miami well into his free-agent years. The Marlins, according to sources, have offered a five-year deal, with Gordon seeking a deal of seven years.
