Spring training games officially get underway Thursday with the San Diego Padres hosting the Los Angeles Dodgers in Cactus League action, a preview of the regular season's opening series in Seoul, South Korea scheduled for March 20-21.
The Dodgers won all the headlines this offseason by signing Shohei Ohtani ($700 million) and Yoshinobu Yamamoto ($325 million) after winning the NL West for the 10th time in 11 seasons.
San Diego had a disappointing 2023 season (82-80) and failed to get back to the playoffs after reaching the NLCS in 2022. This winter, the Padres traded free-agent-to-be Juan Soto to the New York Yankees and are without reigning NL Cy Young winner Blake Snell, who remains unsigned.
Here's what to know for Thursday's game:
Thursday's game between the Dodgers and Padres is scheduled for 3:10 p.m. ET at Peoria Stadium, the Padres' Cactus League home ballpark.
