{{Main|2019 National League Division Series}}

The Dodgers, with the best record in the National League during the regular season, began the postseason by hosting the Washington Nationals in the Division Series. Walker Buehler struck out eight while allowing only one hit and three walks in six scoreless innings in the first game, while the Dodgers got home runs from Gavin Lux and Joc Pederson and three RBI by Max Muncy to win 6–0.{{cite web|url=https://www.mlb.com/news/dodgers-beat-nationals-in-game-1-of-nlds?game_pk=599347|title=Buehler's gem sends Dodgers past Nats|work=mlb.com|first=Ken|last=Gurnick|date=October 3, 2019|access-date=October 3, 2019}} Game 2 saw Clayton Kershaw start for the Dodgers against Stephen Strasburg. The Nationals jumped out to an early lead with an RBI single in the first, then added two more in the second. Kershaw pitched six innings, allowed three runs on six hits, two hit batters, and one walk with four strikeouts. The Dodgers finally scored on a sacrifice fly by in the sixth. Strasburg struck out 10 in six innings allowing only one run on three hits and the Nationals evened up the series with the 4–2 win.{{cite web|url=https://www.mlb.com/news/max-scherzer-pitches-in-relief-vs-dodgers?game_pk=599348|title=All Nats on deck: Max helps Stras gem hold up|work=mlb.com|first=Jamal|last=Collier|date=October 5, 2019|access-date=October 5, 2019}} Hyun-jin Ryu started game 3 and allowed only a two-run homer by Juan Soto in five innings. The Dodgers exploded for seven runs in the sixth inning to come from behind and win 10–4. Justin Turner hit a three-run homer and Russell Martin hit a two-run homer in the game.{{cite web|url=https://www.mlb.com/news/dodgers-win-nlds-game-3-with-7-run-inning?game_pk=599349|title=Dodgers poised to advance after bats come alive|work=mlb.com|first=Ken|last=Gurnick|date=October 6, 2019|access-date=October 6, 2019}} In game 4, the Dodgers jumped out to an early lead on a home run by Turner in the first inning, but the Nationals tied it on a sacrifice fly in the third and went ahead in the fifth on a RBI single by Anthony Rendon and then a three-run homer by Ryan Zimmerman. The Nationals won 6–1 to even the series up at two games and force a deciding game five.{{cite web|url=https://www.mlb.com/news/max-scherzer-nationals-force-nlds-game-5-vs-dodgers?game_pk=599350|title=Facing elimination, Nats ride Max's gem to G5|work=mlb.com|first=Jamal|last=Collier|date=October 7, 2019|access-date=October 7, 2019}} In the final game of the series, Buehler started and allowed only one run in 6{{fraction|2|3}} innings while the Dodgers got a two-run homer by Muncy and a solo homer by Kiké Hernández to take a 3–0 lead after two innings. However, the Nationals got back to back homers by Rendon and Soto in the eighth inning off Kershaw to tie the score. It remained tied into the 10th when Howie Kendrick hit a grand slam off Joe Kelly to end the Dodgers season with a 7–3 loss.{{cite web|url=https://www.mlb.com/news/howie-kendrick-grand-slam-nlds-game-5?game_pk=599351|title=Nats stun LA with slam in 10th, head to NLCS|work=mlb.com|first=Jamal|last=Collier|date=October 10, 2019|access-date=October 10, 2019}}

{{Main|2019 Major League Baseball draft}}

The Dodgers received a compensation pick as a result of their failure to sign J. T. Ginn in the 2018 draft. They lost their second round pick as a result of signing free agent A. J. Pollock and gained a second round compensation pick as a result of losing Yasmani Grandal to free agency. With their two first round picks, they selected college infielders Kody Hoese and Michael Busch. As of the 2024 season, four players from this draft have played in the majors.
