Mike Stanton hasn't even played a full season in the Major Leagues, but the Marlins are already discussing a possible long-term contract.
Heading into a new ballpark next season, Florida has been having preliminary internal talks about a possible contract for the 21-year-old right fielder.
According to a person familiar with the situation, an offer probably wouldn't be made until next year and exact terms of a possible deal haven't been finalized.
Stanton is making $416,000 this year and is under club control for two more years, meaning he won't be eligible for arbitration until after the 2013 season.
