Sizing up Dodgers, Mets in rematch of last year's NLCS teams
Copy Link
The Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Mets are about to see a whole lot of each other.
The defending World Series champions and the team they beat to win the National League pennant last fall play three games this weekend at Citi Field and four games at Dodger Stadium starting June 2. For those of you scoring at home, that's seven matchups in a span of 14 days.
Both teams enter Friday's opener in back-and-forth battles for first place in their respective divisions. How will their head-to-head play dictate the state of the NL East and West? Will they clash again come October? And who has the edge -- both for now and if/when they cross paths in the playoffs?
