Toronto Blue Jays vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
I’m backing the over in this one. The Dodgers have been piling up the hits in this series and the runs and Toronto’s bullpen continues to be an issue. On the other side, Tyler Glasnow’s a solid option, but he’s dependent on strikeouts to succeed, and the Jays don’t really do that. I think this could easily be a high-scoring game so give me the over here.
