It will not feel like the fall when the Dodgers begin their postseason campaign on Saturday.
asserted
Dodgers → feel → Saturday
Especially if the Chicago Cubs win their wild-card series this week against the San Diego Padres.
asserted
Cubs → win → Padres
Though the Dodgers will square off in their National League Division Series against the winner of the NL’s other wild-card series this week between the Braves and Phillies, the outcome of the Cubs-Padres matchup could suddenly have a profound impact on the Dodgers’ playoff opener.
uncertain
outcome → square → opener
If the Cubs advance to the NL’s other best-of-five division series against the Milwaukee Brewers, then the Dodgers will play Game 1 of their NLDS at 6 p.m. local time on Saturday at Dodger Stadium.
asserted
Dodgers → advance → Stadium
If the Padres win, then the Dodgers’ NLDS opener will be at 1 p.m. local time that day.
asserted
opener → win → time
Normally, such a difference wouldn’t matter.
asserted
difference → matter → ?
But this weekend, a heat wave is set to descend upon Los Angeles, which could see first-pitch temperatures of close to 100 degrees if the Dodgers were to get the earlier start time.
uncertain
Dodgers → set → time
“It’s going to be a hot weekend,” manager Dave Roberts said.
asserted
Roberts → go → ?
“And to play at night would certainly be more beneficial.”
asserted
play → play → night
That doesn’t mean Roberts and the Dodgers will be outright rooting for the Cubs in their wild-card series.
asserted
Roberts → mean → series
In much the same way the Dodgers aren’t preoccupied about whether they face the Braves or Phillies in the NLDS, they aren’t getting hung up on Saturday’s to-be-decided start time.
asserted
they → preoccupy → time
Still, the uncertainty has already impacted them in at least one way.
asserted
uncertainty → impact → way
Roberts said the club was not yet ready to name its starting rotation in the NLDS, citing not only the uncertainty of their opponent, but also the fact that they are “not sure about game times and things like that.”
asserted
they → say → that
The likeliest rotation order figures to be Yoshinobu Yamamoto in Game 1, Tarik Skubal in Game 2, Blake Snell in Game 3 and Tyler Glasnow in Game 4.
asserted
order → figure → Game
That alignment would allow Yamamoto to stay on his typical five-days-of-rest schedule between Game 1 and a potential Game 5, Snell to get extra time over the weekend to build up after his recent groin injury, and Glasnow to possibly be an option out of the bullpen earlier in the series (similar to how he was used last October).
uncertain
he → allow → series
For now, however, a final decision hasn’t been made.
asserted
decision → make → ?
The Dodgers still want to see who they are playing –– and when their potentially blistering playoff opener will begin.
asserted
opener → want → who
