07/20/2010 - Toronto, ON (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Hamilton quarterback Kevin Glenn, Edmonton linebacker Maurice Lloyd and kicker Noel Prefontaine, and Hamilton wide receiver Dave Stala were selected as the CFL's top performers for Week 3 of the 2010 season.

Glenn earned the Offensive Player of the Week honors after spearheading the Tiger-Cats to their first win of the season by completing 29-of-36 passes for 336 yards with three touchdowns in a 28-7 decision over Winnipeg. The quarterback also added three carries for 19 yards.

Earning the defensive award was Lloyd, who had two sacks and six tackles -- one for a loss -- in the Eskimos' 24-20 loss to Saskatchewan.

Joining Lloyd for this week's accolades is teammate Prefontaine, who took the special teams honor. The kicker accounted for 12 of Edmonton's 20 points with three field goals, a pair of singles and an extra point. He also punted nine times for a 48.9 average.

Rounding out the weekly awards was Stala, taking the Canadian Player of the Week. In Hamilton's win, the wide receiver pulled in nine catches for 124 yards.

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.
