Liverpool, Spurs finish goalless at Anfield

Soccer Betting Lines

02/06/2012 - Liverpool, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Liverpool and Tottenham played to a 0-0 draw at Anfield on Monday, doing little to improve the ambitions of either side.

The result leaves Tottenham seven points back of leaders Manchester City, while Liverpool failed to make up any ground on fourth-place Chelsea as both sides collected a point this weekend, leaving the Reds four points adrift.

The lone chance of note for either side in the first half came in the 34th minute when Liverpool's Steven Gerrard laid a ball off for Jay Spearing, whose first-time effort from 20 yards curled just past the post.

Tottenham seemed content to hold out for a point as the match went on and was fortunate to remain on level terms when Andy Carroll brought the ball down but fired it well over the net from 12 yards in the 74th minute.

For all the defending that Spurs did, they nearly stole all three points in the final five minutes when Gareth Bale got behind the Liverpool defense but shot straight at goalkeeper Pepe Reina, squandering the best chance of the match.

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.
