The Dodgers will be spectators tonight as the Nationals and Brewers battle it out for the right to play LA in the National League Division Series.

Tonight the Dodgers will not be playing but they will surely be watching the National League wild card game to see whether they will be playing the Washington Nationals or the Milwaukee Brewers in the first round of the playoffs.  The Dodgers have played both teams recently in the postseason but they are certainly familiar with the Brewers who they matched up with in the NLCS last year.

This year’s Brewers club looks much different, especially their pitching staff.  While the Brewers will be without Christian Yelich they are still a dangerous team if they end up making it to the NLDS.  This is a team playing with house money that was said to be “dead” after Yelich went down.  Milwaukee was five games back on September 5th, but went on a tear even with Yelich out and won 19 games in September.

Here is a look at the current Brewers team and how they would match up against the Dodgers if they win tonight.
