Dodgers at Blue Jays picks and predictions
Prediction
Dodgers 6, Blue Jays 3
Moneyline.
BET DODGERS (+105).
This game is hard to handicap with the Dodgers (+105) using an opener, but I'm a firm believer in momentum. And all of the momentum is going the Dodgers way as they look to complete back-to-back series sweeps. Los Angeles is very familiar with Gausman from his 2 seasons in San Francisco. The Dodgers are averaging 7 runs per game during the 6-game win streak.
Run line/Against the spread
PASS.
I'm going to save my unit bet for the moneyline in this game. I dislike when teams decide to go with the opener as it completely throws handicapping out of whack.
Over/Under
PASS.
I just don't see an edge to recommend a bet here. The Dodgers are 5-5 against the Over in their last 10. These 2 teams have gone 2-2-1 against the Over in their last 5 matchups.
