The Los Angeles Dodgers will head from one NL East “power” to another on Friday when they hit the gas and drive to Citi Field in Flushing to take on the New York Mets.

LA’s trip to Philadelphia went swimmingly; save the final game, where they nearly pulled one out in the ninth until Billy McKinney showed up, the team looked downright dominant against one of the hottest squads in MLB.

Even Cody Bellinger started clicking, possibly thanks to Bob Nightengale, the reverse jinx master himself.

The Mets present an entirely new challenge. As of just a few days ago, they ranked among the “contenders” leaking coolant, collapsing at a rate only rivaled by the Red Sox. After a “get right” series against the Nationals, during which they did get right, they’re likely playing with a bit of renewed confidence heading into this home matchup.

And if you like what you see this week, you’re going to really enjoy it when the Mets head west to take on the Dodgers again next weekend.

Hell of a swing. Let’s break down the essentials.

Fans in the Big Apple will be treated to a Julio Urias start; the masterful lefty has reemerged from the bullpen to post a 13-3 record and 3.41 ERA. He’ll be opposed by rookie Tylor Megill, no slouch at 1-2, 3.20.

Dodgers vs Mets Prediction Today

The Dodgers have a sour taste in their mouth left over from Thursday’s affair, and have had 36 hours to stew on it by first pitch. Theoretically, the Mets can pitch, but they’ve been among the worst-performing offenses all year long, regardless of personnel. Megill stays solid, but gives up a four-spot in the fifth, and the Dodgers take this one 5-2.
