KEY GAME INFORMATION
NY METS: NEW YORK (AP) - Five straight losing seasons. That's what the New York Mets have produced since moving into Citi Field.
David Wright, for one, is tired of it.
''We need to start going out there showing results,'' the star third baseman said. ''The last couple years we've kind of been hampered by some contracts and payroll issues. It seems like that's behind us. At the same time, we've got those prospects knocking at the door. I think we're in a better place now than we have been the past few years and quite frankly, I think we have a better team.''
Translation: No more waiting for next year. No more selling the future. No more excuses.
It's time to take a step forward - and that means winning.
General manager Sandy Alderson seems to think so, too. After he signed free agents Curtis Granderson, Bartolo Colon and Chris Young this offseason, a report emerged that Alderson told staffers he thinks the Mets can win 90 games (with a payroll under $90 million).
Even hard-core fans found that overly optimistic, especially with ace Matt Harvey expected to miss the entire season following Tommy John surgery. New York posted its second consecutive 74-88 record last year - and that was with Harvey on the mound most of the way.
But there is reason for hope, particularly in Triple-A. Touted young pitchers Noah Syndergaard and Rafael Montero could soon join a promising rotation that includes Colon, Zack Wheeler, Dillon Gee and Jonathon Niese.
''He's got all the traits of the good ones,'' manager Terry Collins said about Syndergaard. ''He's on track to be special.''
The offense could be better with the addition of Granderson, who got a $60 million, four-year deal after an injury-plagued season for the Yankees across town. His left-handed power bat should provide some much-needed protection for Wright.
The multitalented Young, on a one-year contract following a down season in Oakland, appears highly motivated to regain his All-Star form.
''It's been interesting to watch the whole team,'' Granderson said early in spring training. ''There's power here. Chris Young has been amazing.''
The lineup remains flawed and prone to strikeouts, though the roster has improved. Perhaps not enough to push Washington and Atlanta in the NL East just yet, but the Mets expect to take significant strides this season as they anticipate Harvey's return in 2015.
''When I re-signed here, I knew it wasn't an overnight fix. I think I like that part of the challenge of it,'' Wright said. ''I want to be part of the reason why we get this thing turned around and headed in the right direction and ultimately start winning again. I think we have that ability.''
LA DODGERS: LOS ANGELES (AP) - The Dodgers have spent big bucks on their roster, ramping up World Series expectations right along with the payroll. Now they want to produce results.
They'll get the chance starting Saturday in Australia, where they open the season against NL West rival Arizona.
With a payroll in the range of $225 million-plus, the Dodgers have laid the groundwork to get to their first World Series title since 1988, when they won the title. They came up short last year, losing to St. Louis in six games in the NL championship series.
''The expectations going in this time are realistic. We're a talented club and we're capable,'' said manager Don Mattingly, who signed a three-year extension in January.
The Dodgers want to avoid the poor start they had last season, when key players were injured and the team had to rally to get back into the division race. They eventually won the title by 11 games over the Diamondbacks.
''We need to be more consistent,'' Mattingly said. ''I see it as winning every series and you'll be in pretty good shape. The next thing you know, you're 20 games over .500.''
First baseman Adrian Gonzalez is looking to follow up his strong season last year, while shortstop Hanley Ramirez, who was injured in the NL championship series, will be playing to set himself up for impending free agency.
PREVIEW
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ PA SPORTSTICKER NL PREVIEW (NY METS-LA DODGERS) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

*Mets-Dodgers Preview* ======================

New York (60-69) at Los Angeles (73-57), 9:10 p.m. EDT

The Los Angeles Dodgers teed off when they faced Jacob deGrom in his second career start.

They may not be so homer happy this time even though deGrom is returning from a stint on the disabled list.

The impressive New York Mets rookie makes his first start in 16 days Saturday night opposite Zack Greinke when this three-game series at Dodger Stadium continues.

DeGrom (6-5, 2.87 ERA) proclaimed that he is ready to go after facing hitters in a bullpen session Tuesday. He said he used his complete repertoire and will pitch for the first time since Aug. 7 as he was out due to rotator cuff tendinitis.

"There was definitely more adrenaline than when I throw just in a regular bullpen," DeGrom told MLB's official website. "When somebody steps in there, the competitiveness kind of takes over, so it was nice to throw to hitters."

The right-hander was treated rudely by Los Angeles (73-57) on May 21 when he suffered a 4-3 loss by allowing solo home runs to Yasiel Puig, Hanley Ramirez and Adrian Gonzalez over six innings.

That kind of outing seems unlikely now with Ramirez on the DL and Puig and Gonzalez in 4-for-24 slumps.

DeGrom has allowed three homers in 87 1-3 innings since that game, including one in his last 69 1-3. He's 5-0 with a 1.55 ERA in his past six starts.

The Dodgers maintained their 3 1/2-game lead over San Francisco in the NL West by winning 6-2 on Friday and now try to avoid a fourth straight defeat with Greinke (12-8, 2.75) on the mound.

Greinke is pitching two days later than originally anticipated due to elbow discomfort. He had no issues in a bullpen session Thursday.

"I feel like Zack's going to be fine on Saturday," manager Don Mattingly said. "I don't feel like it's going to turn into long range."

The right-hander hasn't been on a team that has dropped four of his starts in a row since 2010. He is 0-2 with a 3.50 ERA in his last three as Los Angeles has provided him three runs of support.

Greinke's fifth career start over 10 years ago came against the Mets, a 5-2 loss. He has faced New York twice since then, going 1-0 with a 0.75 ERA.

Curtis Granderson is 8 for 41 with 10 strikeouts against Greinke.

Granderson led off Friday with a homer as the Mets (60-69) lost for the seventh time in 10 games and 12th time in 14 meetings with the Dodgers. New York tied a season high with four errors.

"We had a bad night. It happens," manager Terry Collins said. "When you look up (after eight innings) and you have as many errors as you've got hits, that's not a good feeling."

The Mets are last in the majors since the All-Star break in runs per game (3.1), batting average (.212) and slugging percentage (.310). Granderson is hitting .184 in that span.

Dodgers catcher A.J. Ellis is baseball's worst qualifying hitter since the All-Star break at .140, but he had an RBI double Friday.
