The playoff picture for the Braves is just about set. They’ve clinched the NL East and will almost certainly host a three-game Wild Card Series at Truist Park. The only question left is who they will play — with the Padres, Phillies, and Cubs all jockeying for seeding in the Wild Card standings. Braves 2026 […]
The Cubs get lucky once again in this series and don’t have to face Marlins ace Sandy Alcántara, who went Sunday against the Padres. In fact, they’ll face the same three Marlins starters they took on in the series in Miami a couple of weeks ago, in the same order. Since these teams last met […]
The Dodgers and San Diego Padres have faced off the postseason three times, in every even year dating back to 2020.

Unless the Dodgers totally collapse this week and the Braves win out, Atlanta is going to be hosting a three-game Wild Card series at Truist Park, facing either the Padres, Cubs, or Phillies.

The Brewers, Dodgers and Braves have already clinched their respective divisions, while the Cubs, Padres and Phillies are jockeying for wild-card seeding while hoping to hold off the Diamondbacks, who haven’t been eliminated yet but are four games back of the final wild-card spot.

デーブ・ロバーツ監督が、佐々木朗希を次のパドレス戦でブルペンから起用する方針を明かし、「朗希はどんな場面でも信頼している」と語りました。 佐々木は4〜5イニングを担うロングリリーフではなく、状況によっては複数イニングを投げる可能性がある役割になる見通しです。最初の救援登板では走者を背負った場面ではなく、イニングの開始から起用する可能性が高く、いきなり九回を任せる考えはないと説明しました。 ロバーツ監督は、先発陣に安定感が戻り、ポストシーズンでは先発投手が4人いれば対応できることから、佐々木を救援へ移行させる段階に入っていることも認めました。その上で、佐々木の高い球威や左右を問わず打者と対戦できる点を評価しています。 また、エメット・シーハンはオクラホマシティへ戻り、次の土曜日にポストシーズンで先発する予定。その登板後にドジャース投手陣の状況を再評価し、メジャーのポストシーズンではブルペン候補として検討されます。 主な内容： 佐々木朗希をパドレス戦でブルペン起用 ロングリリーフではなく複数イニングの可能性 初登板はイニングの開始から起用する見通し 最初から九回を任せる予定はない ポス...
