The price is right to back the superior team with the much better starter going and bullpen.

Steven Matz has allowed just two runs in his last four starts. If you discount his first start of the year, he would have an ERA of 0.67. He's backed by a strong bullpen, something the Dodgers don't have except at closer.

The Mets also just had a short trip to LA from San Diego where the Dodgers had to fly in from the East Coast last night after playing in Toronto on Sunday.

Dodgers starter Scott Kazmir is on the downside of his career. He's yielded four or more runs in four of his last five starts and has thrown a combined 224 pitches in his last two games. His ERA on the season is a ghastly 5.68.
