The Dodgers are back in New York after an off day, and the next stop on their road trip is a series against the Mets. Los Angeles enters the matchup with momentum after taking its first two series of the trip, first against the Yankees and then against the Phillies.
That strong start has given the Dodgers a chance to keep building on a successful East Coast swing. Returning to New York so soon after facing the Yankees adds another layer of attention, but the focus now shifts to a Mets club waiting for them in Queens.
Roki Sasaki is set to get the start for Los Angeles, giving the Dodgers another chance to see the young right-hander on this trip. His outing will be one of the main storylines as the club looks to carry over the form it showed in its previous two series.
With wins already banked against two major National League and American League opponents on the trip, the Dodgers now have an opportunity to finish this stretch of travel on another positive note. The series against the Mets will test whether Los Angeles can keep its road momentum going in New York.
