Taking the DODGERS here. I know that Kershaw doesn't have the best post season numbers. In fact, they are pretty bad overall. 2-6 4.59 ERA in 13 games, 10 starts. Maybe he is just worn down by the time October comes around. He was on the shelf and has a minimum of 10 starts off his arm. That can only help here. He gave up 2 earned in 21 innings in September after coming off the DL. Scherzer also with pedestrian numbers in post-season. 4-3 3.73 ERA in 12 games, 10 starts. I can't say you go wrong grabbing him as a dog. The guy struck out 284 hitters with a .97 WHIP and .199 BA against. But he has gives up HRs and that could be costly here. Nats will be without Ramos, and that is a .307 hitter with 22HRs out of the lineup. Harper I think is injured, or at least has nagging issues the entire season. Daniel Murphy and his .347 average is hampered with an upper leg injury. I think facing Kershaw, and this LA staff in general, you want your best as close to healthy as possible. Seager, Turner, Pederson, Grandal all hit more than 25HRs so I won't be shocked if one, or 2 go yard tonight. I think LA wins this series and has a good shot at a World Series appearance. 4* Money Maker LA DODGERS
