Can anyone confirm Johnson to Yanks, Contreras to Marlins, prospects to Arizona?

I'm hearing rumors that this is almost a done deal now, and I'm highly skeptical. Anyone heard something similar?

Here's the latest from ESPN. Sounds bogus to me (ESPN's thought about Johnson).

They also say Maroth to the Twins :?

Thats the who the Twins are after supposedly. Us at a Twins board are very wary. Hes got bad numbers, in a pitchers park.

5.99 ERA on the road I believe. But still young, who knows. If we can trade Doug away.... that would make me happy

From what I remember, Contreras would be a setup man in Florida, and with their acquisition of Mota, they have no need for Contreras now. I didn't think this deal ever made sense for the Marlins though.
