world series

Toronto needs to get into the LA bullpen, which is terrible, if they're to win this.
The question is, can the Blue Jays' bats get to the LA starters?
I don't think they can.

I'm hardly a fan of either team, but the Dodgers have a demonstrative edge in all categories except relief pitching.

Pitching wins in October. If the Blue Jays starters can silence Ohtani, Freeman, Mookie, and the rest, and get into the LA bullpen, then yes, the Blue Jays can win, but good luck with all that.

I like Toronto to win W/S They can have a better batting average for this series.
At least that's what I'm on.

Why Gausman not pitch game 1 like wtf

Dodgers sweeping!

Headsterx · 10-24-25, 08:13 PM

Dodgers take that 2-0 lead and will never look back.

Dodgers nothing special.
Ohtani strikes out 40% of the time in playoffs but they'll tell you he's a goat hitter.

KABOOM!! ⚾⚾⚾⚾

WOW!! When the Jay's bats heat up they are capable of a formidable offensive onslaught.

Looks like Blake Snell took it on the weak chin.

I didn't see this thread yesterday or I would have commented but the +134 on Jays yesterday was about as easy as it gets. I would disagree with you that Dodgers have the edge in many areas but I will agree with you on Dodgers bullpen which will ultimately make sure Dodgers do not win.

Blue Jays have just as good of a lineup as the Dodgers and they take better at bats as well. They win at home and score runs. Dodgers were mediocre on the road entire season and have probably the worst bullpen of any team that ever played in a world series so any advantage they have in starting pitching is negated. Playing Dodgers with juice in Toronto any game in this series is about as hamburger as it gets.

Yamaoto "Rice Rocket" is striking out the Jays all day!

Headsterx · 10-25-25, 07:34 PM

Dodgers take that early lead again. They better hold this time!

While I think the Dodgers will win, put a little on a Blue Jays outlier price at Caesars +425 down 2-1.

Fangraphs has their probability at 21% after losing Game 3 which would be +375 odds.

If they can find a way to win Game 4 then they regain home field advantage in a best 2 out of 3 series.

Solid argument, but Ohtani is an alien and a dealbreaker. At this point, I wouldn't take Jays +700 for the series unless I was told by the medical staff that #17 is likely to miss a couple of games with injury

I wasn't talking about a series bet. I was talking about the heavy juice anyone would be shipping the books playing the Dodgers in Toronto. It is a mute point now as Jays are playing without Springer which is a massive blow so backing the Jays is not worth it.

This is sitting pretty now.

There may be some value back on the Dodgers to win the series going into Game 6 at +200 or better.

They are -140 to win Game 6. A Game 7 matchup would likely be a rematch of Glasnow vs Scherzer from Game 3 which the Dodgers closed in the -190 to -200 range at home. Even on the road, would have to think they would be -150 or higher.

Parlay of -140 & -150 = +185

Can get +205 for them to win at ESPN BET / Score Bet

Thoughts?
