To be honest, I rather thought the deciding game between the Dodgers and the Nationals was a bit of a mess. The Dodgers won on one big inning. They had to use their closer for nearly three innings at the end and they had to use Clayton Kershaw for the final two outs. Largely as a result of injuries, their pitching staff is a shambles. They had to use Kershaw to start two games and Hill to start another two. Neither were dominant in their starts. The third starter, Maeda, got shelled in his start. He will likely start Game One of the NLCS.
Anything can happen, but you have to like the Cubs chances. The Cubs took the season series 4-3 and Lester and Hendricks, the likely starters in Games One and Two, were dominating in their respective starts against LA.
