Dodgers vs Blue Jays Prediction

This is a must-watch matchup between two hall of fame pitchers, even though neither are at the top of their powers. Still a fun matchup. The Dodgers should be favored at home, especially when it looks like Kershaw has more left in the tank. While coming off a strong showing against the Royals, Scherzer looks like a shell of himself at 41 years old. Still, the Blue Jays are playing well enough as a team to take a shot with the plus money. The Dodgers have been shaky over the last month and aren’t a team you should be consistently backing in the favorite role. Give me the Blue Jays.
