The 2nd best team in MLB is about to be sent packing by the 8th best team.

Wonder if the best team in the MLB is shown the door by the 7th best team later today.

Nah Nats are better than LA imo. Soto/Rendon/Kendrick and Stratsburgh/Max. At the very least they are way better built for the playoffs.

Astros should beat the Rays but I'll be rooting for the Rays 100%.

The Dodgers are definitely better built for a regular season (hence the wins). Hell, you could even say they're better for a 7 game series. 

But for a 5 game series? The power of your starting rotation goes up. You can cheese the opponent with them out of the bullpen. The weakness of your actual bullpen does not get exposed as much. Nats have Strasburg/Scherzer/Corbin. That definitely gave them a boost. 

But then also baseball is gonna baseball. You could put the 30th ranked team vs the best team and play enough series and the 30th placed team will win. Nats are a good team and they're playing great right now, and doing a solid job of hiding their BP weaknesses.
