Football Betting Lines

07/30/2010 - Santa Clara, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The San Francisco 49ers completed the signings of their 2010 draft class on Friday, as guard Mike Iupati followed offensive tackle Anthony Davis, safety Taylor Mays and linebacker Navorro Bowman, who inked deals earlier in the day.

Davis, the 11th overall pick out of Rutgers, and Iupati, selected 17th overall out of Idaho, signed five-year deals. Mays, a safety from Southern California selected in the second round, and Bowman, a linebacker from Penn State chosen in the third round, each agreed to four-year contracts.

Davis started 32 of the 38 games he played for Rutgers. He was a Third-Team All-American as a junior last year and earned First-Team All-Big East honors as a sophomore when he made the transition from guard to tackle.

Iupati started all but two of his 35 games at Idaho and became only the second non-BCS player to be named a finalist for the Outland Trophy as the nation's top interior lineman since the award's inception in 1946.

Mays led the Trojans with 96 tackles in 2009 and finished his four-year collegiate career with 276 tackles and five interceptions.

Bowman skipped his senior season to enter the NFL after totaling 93 tackles, including a team best 17 for a loss, with three sacks, two interceptions and two fumble recoveries last year.

Marlins could start season without No. 2 starter Johnson

JUPITER, Fla. -- The Foorida Marlins are preparing for the likelihood that right-hander
Josh Johnson won't be ready when the season starts April 2.

Grapefruit League action starts Wednesday, but Johnson, penciled in as the No. 2 starter, hasn't even thrown off a mound at full speed since September. He's experienced some soreness in his right forearm.

MySportsbook.com have the Marlins listed with baseball betting lines at +800 to win the NL East this season .

''You guys know the math. If he's not on the hill then he becomes an opening day roster issue,'' manager Fredi Gonzalez said Saturday. ''We're borderline now.''

Johnson, who finished 12-7 with a 3.10 ERA in 2007, was supposed to throw on flat ground Saturday. That was canceled when he woke up with pain.

He played catch on Wednesday with no pain but felt discomfort in a throwing session on Thursday. He's expected to try again Sunday.

''Like we always said from the very beginning, we're going to take it easy on him,'' Gonzalez said. ''He didn't feel right, so we shut him down. We're going to take it back to step one and see where we're at.''

Among the candidates to take Johnson's spot in the rotation are left-hander Chris George and right-handers Yusmeiro Petit and Jose Garcia.

Right-hander Sergio Mitre, who missed most of last season with arm and shoulder problems, also is behind.

With Johnson's status doubtful, Gonzalez said right-hander Ricky Nolasco will stay in the rotation and no longer will be considered a candidate for closer.
