The 2022 San Diego Padres season was the 54th season of the San Diego Padres franchise. The Padres play their home games at Petco Park as members of Major League Baseball's National League West.
On December 2, 2021, Commissioner of Baseball Rob Manfred announced a lockout of players, following expiration of the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) between the league and the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA). On March 10, 2022, MLB and the MLBPA agreed to a new collective bargaining agreement, thus ending the lockout. Opening Day was played on April 7. [1] Although MLB previously announced that several series would be cancelled due to the lockout, the agreement provides for a 162-game season, with originally canceled games to be made up via doubleheaders. [2]
On October 2, San Diego clinched their first wild card berth since the pandemic shortened 2020 season and their first in a full season since the 2006 season. They defeated the New York Mets in the NLWCS and the Los Angeles Dodgers in the NLDS. The Padres' 3–1 victory over the Dodgers was considered a historic upset, as their 111 wins in the regular season were the fourth most in MLB history and 22 more than San Diego's 89. The only time in league playoff history that a team defeated an opponent who was more than 22 wins better was in the 1906 World Series, when the 93-win Chicago White Sox defeated the 116-win Chicago Cubs. San Diego advanced to face Philadelphia Phillies in the NLCS, the Padres' first championship series since 1998. [3] However, they were defeated by the Phillies, losing in five games.
The expiration of the league's collective bargaining agreement (CBA) with the Major League Baseball Players Association occurred on December 1, 2021 with no new agreement in place. [4] As a result, the team owners voted unanimously to lockout the players stopping all free agency and trades. [5] [6]
The parties came to an agreement on a new CBA on March 10, 2022. [7]
Pursuant to the new CBA, several new rules were instituted for the 2022 season. The National League adopted the designated hitter full-time, a draft lottery was implemented, the postseason will expand from ten teams to twelve, and advertising patches appeared on player uniforms and helmets for the first time.
