Blue Jays vs Dodgers Prediction

The Blue Jays look like a team that’s having a World Series hangover and this series hasn’t been kind to them. The Dodgers are on fire through 11 games and not a team I’m excited to step in front of honestly. Ohtani is on the mound and a fair price. The Dodgers are laying closer to -200 usually in spots like this. I thought the Blue Jays were going to show fight in this series but they’ve been badly outplayed. I’m going to roll with the Dodgers for the sweep.
