Making their third post season appearance since 2006, the Padres are set to open the wild card round of the playoffs in a best-of-three series against the Mets.
SAN DIEGO — Sunday's playoff clinching champagne celebration is now over, as it's onto the wild card round of the playoffs for the San Diego Padres, who will face the New York Mets in a three-game series.
As they get set for their third postseason appearance since 2006, there is a lot to like about this Padres team, which posted 89 victories in the regular season. The players will be the first to point out it's been the pitching that has been the strength of the team this year. "I like our pitching a lot. I think we have great arms, and I think the arms we are about to run out to the mound are as good as any in baseball. I think that gives us a real advantage," says Padres outfielder Wil Myers.
"Yes, a little success against them in the past definitely helps our confidence," Musgrove says."The playoffs is a whole different ballgame, everything goes out the window and everyone is zero and zero."
