The Padres are seeking an upset over the Dodgers in the NLDS.

The Los Angeles Dodgers were expected to be in the NLDS once again. The team finished with the best record in baseball and had no problem against the Milwaukee Brewers in the first round of the postseason.

The surprise here is the Dodgers going up against the San Diego Padres. Both teams have been divisional foes since 1969 and this is their first postseason meeting. The Padres did not make the playoffs from 2007-2019 and only went once from 1969-1995. Now, these look like two of the best teams in the league finally being competitive at the same time.

What to watch for in Game 1

Mike Clevinger is returning from his injury and will be the Padres’ Game 1 starter. That should provide a huge boost to the roster and also prevent the need for yet another bullpen game. Walker Buehler gets the start for the Dodgers after four innings of two-run baseball proved to be good enough last week against the Brewers.

The Dodgers did not have to do much last week to best Milwaukee. The offense scored a total of seven runs in two games and will need to do more to keep pace with the Padres lineup. Fernando Tatis Jr. and Manny Machado are capable of launching a rally at any moment and that lineup as a whole put up 19 runs in three games against the St. Louis Cardinals.

The game is being played in Texas at a time when the American League series are using the respective stadiums of both the Dodgers and Padres.
