First Base: Lucas Duda vs Adrian Gonzalez

Both of them are fairly similar in that both are left handed hitters with home run power. Gonzo gets the slight edge because he’s been a more accomplished hitter over the years and he still is a Gold Glove fielder at 1st. But Duda has improved defensively and has flashed more consistent pop over the last couple seasons. When healthy, Gonzalez has been more consistent at the plate while Duda has been streaky. If Duda can get hot in this series it would be huge for the Mets offense.

Edge: Dodgers

Other than God, sports are my biggest love. My teams are the Mets, Knicks, NY Giants, NY Rangers and St Johns basketball (St. John's alumni). I especially love the Mets like crazy, more than any other team and seeing them win the World Series would be a dream come true and definitely the best sports moment. The Knicks are a close second. I also like to write, so combine that with my passion for sports equals a perfect scenario, I would love to do sports writing long term. If not that, then probably sports broadcasting, cause I love to talk sports as well. In addition to writing for ESNY, I'm also currently writing for Metsmerizedonline.
