The 8-team NL and 8-team AL playoff teams and matchups are as follows:
AMERICAN LEAGUE
No. 1 Rays vs. No. 8 Blue Jays
No. 2 A's vs. No. 7 White Sox
No. 3 Twins vs. No. 6 Astros
No. 4 Indians vs. No. 5 Yankees
NATIONAL LEAGUE
No. 1 Dodgers vs. No. 8 Brewers
No. 2 Braves vs. No. 7 Reds
No. 3 Cubs vs. No. 6 Marlins

Looks like the Braves got the unlucky matchup with the Reds with Bauer and Castillo.
