New York Jets 2010 Training Camp Preview

REPORT DATES: July 29th (Rookies), Aug. 1st (Veterans)
SITE: SUNY Cortland, Cortland, NY
CAMP OBJECTIVES: Expectations are sky-high for the 2010 Jets, but unforeseen struggles or injuries during training camp could alter that thinking. The backfield needs to come together, with Mark Sanchez taking firm control of the offense and the Shonn Greene/LaDainian Tomlinson/Joe McKnight running back triumvirate complementing each other. Also, second-round guard Vladimir Ducasse (UMass) needs to show he can fill the big shoes of the departed Alan Faneca. On defense, keep an eye on Vernon Gholston, who is transitioning from outside linebacker to defensive end and is almost certainly down to his last shot. In the secondary, Brodney Pool and Eric Smith are the top candidates at the free safety position vacated by Kerry Rhodes, and first-round rookie Kyle Wilson (Boise State) and fellow newcomer Antonio Cromartie (ex-Chargers) must live up to their billing at corner. Darrelle Revis may hold out of camp to protest his contract, so Wilson and Cromartie could get a lot of meaningful reps. Nick Folk and Steve Weatherford appear locked in at kicker and punter, respectively, though neither is great shakes, so you can expect GM Mike Tannenbaum to monitor the free agent wire throughout camp.

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.
