NL West-leading Dodgers face Mets in important series

It is a not much League move to facilitate rarely factory, but the Dodgers' Juan Uribe but was ill-treated recently next to third vile with the old hidden globe trick. Fortunately, representing the streaking Los Angeles Dodgers -- the team has promptly won 37 of its after everything else 45 games -- Uribe's baserunning faux pas was seemingly the single Dodger gaffe at some point in the team's sweep of the Tampa Bay Devil Rays this precedent weekend.

With so many things departing well representing the Boys in Blue, the ominous danger of overconfidence can take root. During order to steer clear of such a glitch, the team will need to focus on its forthcoming cycle not in favor of the Mets, and with respectable think logically, as LA is demanding to varnish in chief place not single in the NL West, but furthermore across the whole National League.

With the Dodgers head in the NL West stretching to 7.5 games, Los Angeles' 67 wins puts them contained by striking distance of both Pittsburgh (70) and Atlanta (72 wins).

One recipe to the Dodgers continuing their strong run will be the physical condition of stars Hanley Ramirez and Matt Kemp, both of whom own battled injuries all season.

The Mets, meanwhile, own had problems of their own, as team captain David Wright was sidelined by a confine injury this month, and the organization furthermore was rocked by the steroids-related suspensions of two minor leaguers. Wright’s corner has been filled-in by 22-year-old Wilmer Flores, who batted .321 next to Triple A.

Indeed, the Mets show your face into Dodger Stadium on a two-game winning trace themselves, and are 6-4 larger than their after everything else 10. Given New York's contemporary victory, self-righteousness would be solitary issue the Dodgers be required to steer clear of.

Tonight righty Ricky Nolasco (8-9, 3.65 ERA) will take the hill representing the Dodgers what time he goes up not in favor of the Mets Jenrry Mejia ( 1-1, 1.96ERA).

Tuesday's matchup information to be more fascinating, as Mets' ace Matt Harvey takes on impressive LA draftee left-hander Hyun-Jin Ryu.

The cycle will conclude Wednesday with Mets righty Dillon Gee facing Dodgers lefty Chris Capuano.
