Key MLB Betting Trends and Matchups Analysis
Betting playoff baseball is a completely different animal as you have the best pitching, hitting, bullpens, etc. going against each other. Rotations are no longer lined up like they were in the last round, so we are seeing larger moneylines and totals.
There will be more bullpen games, so it is important to try and piece together what you think each team will do in regards to pitching. This also means the benches will come into play a lot more in a seven-game series.

Dodgers vs Blue Jays Best Bets and Predictions
The 2025 World Series will see the Los Angeles Dodgers taking on the Toronto Blue Jays. The Dodgers have ran through the National League with a 9-1 record in the postseason. The Blue Jays had to come back from 3-2 series deficit, and a late deficit in Game 7, to win the American League against the Seattle Mariners.
The Dodgers have ridden the strength of a fully healthy starting rotation, and will start LHP Blake Snell in Game 1, while the Jays will go with rookie RHP Trey Yesavage. Los Angeles has allowed exactly one run in each of their last five games.
Snell's strikeout props have been in the 6.5-7.5 range, and it is at 6.5 on Friday night against a Blue Jays team that does not strikeout much. But, Snell's strikeout lines have been 10, 9, 9, 5, 12, and 11 over his last six starts. His changeup is one of the most effective pitches in baseball. He has recorded at least 18 outs in his last six starts, too.
With just one game on the slate, this is an all or none correlation approach, and I expect that Snell will continue his strong performances against the Jays.
Friday's Best Bets
- Dodgers -1.5 runs for 1 unit (-108 at FanDuel Sportsbook)
- Blake Snell Over 17.5 outs for 1 unit (-125 at Caesars Sportsbook)
- Blake Snell Over 6.5 strikeouts for 1 unit (+102 at FanDuel Sportsbook)
