Hmm, now that the NBA season is over, what shall we talk about for the next 50+ days until teams report for training camp in the NFL and college? Well, the Marlins continue to suck the life out of Miami, or the death of the BCS, or the NBA Draft? Decisions, decisions, decisions.
The Miami Marlins have had a number of losses in June, 17 to be exact. The latest one might be the toughest.

Josh Johnson has experienced plenty of frustration over the past few years, having dealt with season-ending injuries in 2010 and 2011 and a rough start to 2012. Now, he's seemed to recapture the form that had the Miami Marlins believing he'd be their ace for years to come.
Scott Cousins' bat was a welcome addition to Miami's sputtering lineup. The center fielder had his first hits in more than a year, going 3 for 7 and delivering an RBI triple in the 15th inning that sent the Marlins to a 4-3 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday night.
The Miami Marlins have finally finished one of the worst home stands since June 2011 with a 10-2 thumping at the hands of the Boston Red Sox. The home stand was miserable for both the team and the fans.
