The Los Angeles Dodgers and Washington Nationals will square off in a battle of contenders looking to shed the stigma of postseason disappointments. Dating back to the 2012 season, no two teams have consistently fielded a roster as talented as the Dodgers and Nationals . During that time, the two teams have won less than 86 games only once — the 2015 Nationals — during the regular season, but they've yet to advance beyond the NLCS. One team is guaranteed a shot at redemption this postseason.
