WASHINGTON -- Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Wednesday his team is facing the Washington Nationals at an opportune time, given the injuries to Stephen Strasburg and others.Regardless, I feel good where were at. If were playing our type of baseball, we can beat anybody, Roberts said at Nationals Park, where the Dodgers worked out for about 1 1/2 hours starting a little before 9 p.m. after their cross-country flight. But, yeah, I think that were catching them at the right time.Washington will host Game 1 of the NL Division Series on Friday, with Game 2 on Saturday, before the teams head to Los Angeles.The Dodgers held batting practice and did some fielding work Wednesday under the lights, because Roberts said he wanted to not have a day go by where were not active.After the brief session, catcher Carlos Ruiz -- who took some grounders at third base -- said: We know that it was a long day, but were real excited.While the Dodgers had 28 players spend time on the disabled list over the course of the season, the most for a major league team since at least 1987, their key contributors are healthy right now. But the Nationals are dealing with various injuries. Strasburg will miss the NLDS with a right elbow problem, and catcher Wilson Ramos is done for the season after tearing a ligament in his right knee.Second baseman Daniel Murphy and right fielder Bryce Harper have missed time lately, too.Murphy last started on Sept. 17, because of a strained muscle in his buttocks. Harper had right shoulder issues earlier this season, and was bothered by a sore left thumb that kept him out of the lineup for four games in late September.Roberts described the Nationals as very, obviously, under cover about things when it comes to the health of the 2015 NL MVP, so for us, as far as preparation, its more of just expect to see the best Harper and well see what happens.Roberts also was asked about the Nationals unwillingness to announce who their starting pitchers will be for Games 2 and 3, after Max Scherzer takes the mound in Game 1.I dont think theyre trying to play coy just because, Roberts said, but I dont think it affects us.---AP Sports Writer Stephen Whyno contributed.

When youre at the top, youre everyones target.After taking the title at Frankfurt and Manila, OG has set a strong case for being one of the best teams in Dota 2. The two-time Major-winning squad is bootcamping for a run at the Aegis, and as team coach Sébastien 7ckngMad Debs puts it, all eyes are on OG.Winning two Majors definitely builds up some confidence, but it also makes you a target. Everyone looks at you through a lens, said 7ckngMad. [The International] will be way rougher than the two Majors before.Even with the higher level of competition, toppling the mean green will not be easy. Many have tried and failed; Team Liquid, Wings Gaming, Newbee, Vici.Gaming Reborn, almost every top team has been shown the exit by OG. Even those who take out OG have trouble replicating the victory, as the team adapts and returns stronger than ever.This is a team that has stood the test of time, endured drought seasons and reaped the rewards. For many members of OG, this is not their first time competing for Dota 2s most coveted prize pool, but this is the first time theyve come in as the favorites. Johan n0tail Sundstein has seen several TIs, through the viewpoint of several teams, but this time is different.I would prefer not to be the favorites going into a tournament, but this is the first time that I can say that I have a chance to win a TI, said n0tail. That is more motivation than Ive ever had before.The many-faced teamIts difficult to pinpoint the most effective cog in the OG machine. Other teams rely on single players, explosive playmakers who set the tempo and lead the team. Yet OG doesnt seem to rely on the same factors. Each time one player falters, gets focused in lane or harassed out of any farm, others instantly pick up the slack.Amer Miracle- Barqawi tends to be most obvious choice for teams to focus their aggression on. A 9000 MMR mid laner, Miracle- has shown proficiency across a breadth of heroes, from meta picks like Tinker to pocket strats in Medusa or Axe. Teams often focus on the shut down Miracle- approach, yet this tactic doesnt seem to faze him in the slightest.If Im focused [on], my team sometimes tries to make space for me to catch up, said Miracle-. Its not good for opponents to focus me because my team will just have a free game.This is where players like n0tail step in, as he has found new rhythm in his carry role on OG. On Terrorblade alone, n0tail averages 661 gold-per-minute, and he boasts impressive stats across a wide range of carries, from Juggernaut to Naga Siren and Drow Ranger.If it isnt the danger of Miracle- getting out of control, its n0tail, or offlaner David Moon Tan, or even a support like Andreas Cr1t- Nielsen getting too much space to make plays happen across the map. Captain and drafter Tal Fly Aizik notes the flexibility of his team to move from comfort picks to necessary counters.When you draft for your team, its important to keep in mind what heroes you are comfortable with, said Fly. But as a top team, you should be able to integrate heroes youve rarely practiced as well, if the situation calls for it.Band of brothersIts all in the camaraderiie of OG, an inherent trust these five players have built up with each other.dddddddddddd The Dota scene has rarely been known for its stability, and past years have often been plagued with roster swaps and players constantly moving on to new pastures. This OG squad has stuck it out though, from a surprise Frankfurt win through a dry winter spell, and back on through to Manila.Now, with The International and over $18 million in prize money ahead, is when the loyalty pays dividends.If you believe in your team, the players you have, and you have trust in one another, its good to stick together because that means well have experienced the lows, said Fly. If you are able to rise from that youll be that much stronger. Teams that are only together for half a year might not have gone through the lows yet and those obstacles might happen during the most important tournament of the year. They might not be able to bounce back from that.Moon expressed similar sentiments about players and teams that often struggle to stay in one place for long.As for other teams, there are some players out there who just cant make it, not because of their skill, but because they cannot work well with certain people, said Moon. That is what I think is a core issue in other teams.This is not a problem for OG, though, as this talented group of players hasnt just found a common standing in skill, but in personality. At tournaments like The Summit, its easy to see how this group gets along, and how its managed to turn that into success.Seattle calling7ckngMad told us the atmosphere of their TI bootcamp is slightly different, yet similar to the teams preparations for the Manila Major.I think that if it is different, its on a personal level for each and every one of us, more than as a team, said 7ckngMad. Its always fun, according to the team coach, but the team has been picking up steam.Every day that passes, the hype is increasing, 7ckngMad says. You can tell that were getting there.Theres still obstacles on the road, though. A recent appearance at The Summit 5 saw OG miss the grand finals of a tournament for the first time since Epicenter in May. Both times, it was at the hands of a Chinese squad: in May, Newbee, and at The Summit, Wings Gaming. When asked which teams the mean green is keeping an eye on, Fly was clear on who the teams greatest competitors would be.Right now, Liquid, Newbee and Wings seem like the top competition for us, said Fly. 7ckngMad echoed an obvious wariness of the top teams, but both captain and coach had a second list of blind spots they were watching.Personally, Im interested in keeping an eye on the question marks, such as Secret and EG, mainly, said 7ckngMad.Its no question teams have their eyes set on OG. There is no doubt OG is a team that can take the title for the first time, as a team built solely on the talent and cohesion of five players.At the end of the day, it doesnt matter, said 7ckngMad. The only team we truly have to keep an eye on is ourselves.
