Just because they’ve been a walkover at times this season, the team down a few hours south of Chavez Ravine still could provide some challenges to a slumping Dodger team.
With righty mashers galore, an above-average defense and some solid young arms in the rotation, the Boys in Blue can use this series as a tuneup and confidence builder, but only if they correct some of their mistakes from the internationally-viewed Yankees series.
On offense, the Dodgers will need to hit lefty starters, or starters in general, which means improving the performance of their righty-heavy lineup and Bellinger will have to snap out of his cold spell.
