I said it months back when we got hot, but I think it might be to our advantage to have entered the postseason having been playing meaningful games versus coasting to an easy division title then having to turn it back on in the postseason.
The Dodgers haven't faced pressure since last October. The Nats have had their backs up against the wall since they hit 19-31. And now after winning last night and facing the favorites, it almost feels like playing with house money. All the pressure is on LA. True that the Nats still haven't advanced past the NLDS, but the Dodgers are the team expected to face the Yankees or Astros in the World Series.
This series is going to be epic. I think we get them in 5.
