The MLB postseason is officially upon us.
The Wild Card series kick off on Tuesday and one team that will not be playing is the Los Angeles Dodgers.
After another dominant season, they have a first-round bye in the postseason.
They now await the winner of the Milwaukee Brewers-Arizona Diamondbacks series.
One player who is ready to try and lead the Dodgers to the World Series is Mookie Betts.
MLB.com put together a list of the top players in the playoffs.
Betts comes in at number one on that list just ahead of Atlanta Braves outfielder Ronald Acuna Jr.
The stars come out in October.

It is interesting to see Betts ahead of Acuna on this list because the latter is most likely going to win NL MVP.
Acuna is coming off a historic regular season where he hit 40 home runs and stole 73 bases.
Those two are most likely to square off in the NLCS, with a chance at the World Series on the line.
On this list, there are only two American League players, Corey Seager and Justin Verlander.
Seager is projected to finish second in AL MVP voting while Verlander is one of the best pitchers of the generation.
But, it is odd not to see more American League players on here.
Marcus Semien of the Rangers is very deserving of a spot on this list, as are pitchers Kevin Gausman and Sonny Gray.
Both the pitchers had a better regular season than Verlander, but the 40-year-old cracked the list ahead of them.
Overall, there are many elite players representing both leagues in the postseason.
This October is set up to be a lot of fun.
