New York Mets vs. Miami Marlins MLB Prediction:
The Marlins have give the Mets a little trouble so far this year and I look for that to continue on Monday.
The Mets are the better team, but I am not sold they will win this game. I was actually surprised they were as big a favorite as they are.
Since Miami does not score a lot of runs, the Miami pitchers will have to be on their game. I am confident that they can do so.
I like the Marlins as +125 home dogs.
