Monday’s are usually days that the sports schedule does not have too many spotlight games. Today, though, there is a game seven in the NBA. And it’s not just any team. It’s the Miami Heat, who have had the focus of the media almost more than Tim Tebow.

Each day, i give a free play and today’s is the Miami Marlins. They’re coming off a surprising three game sweep of the New York Mets. It’s the most life that this team has shown this season. The comedy of jokes on each player on the roster has been stunted temporarily. I think their momentum continues against Kyle Kendrick and the Phillies.

Kendrick gave up seven hits to this Marlins team in early May. That was during an atrocious stretch for the Marlins bats. They’re coming in hitting the ball well as a team, and should boost that outing of hits into the double digit range.

You can either take Miami as a moneyline play, or be on the safer side and take them +1.5 as a -140 payout.
