New York Mets vs Los Angeles Dodgers Early NLCS preview

After a superb showing from both squads, they each drew two games from their four-game series. After winning yesterday's game, the Mets finally clinched the best record in all of the National League at 37-19 with the Dodgers tantalizingly close at 35-19. With the MLB regular season a third of the way done, could this be a preview of the National League Championship Series come October? It could very well be.

The New York Mets have mainly been relying on firepower due to the injury to their starters Max Scherzer, Jacob deGrom, and Tylor Megill. The same can be said for the Los Angeles Dodgers, though for a different reason as most of their pitching has been iffy as of late and the absence of club legend Clayton Kershaw due to an injury is not helping the cause.
