The World Series is heading back to Toronto — and for the first time this postseason, the Blue Jays are favourites to win it all.
After taking a 3–2 series lead over the Dodgers, Toronto’s odds have flipped dramatically. On FanDuel, the Jays now sit at -240 (70.8% implied chance) to capture their first championship since 1993 — a massive swing from just two games ago, when Los Angeles held an 85% edge.
| Date | Toronto | Los Angeles |
|---|---|---|
| Entering Series | +190 | -230 |
| After Game 3 | +385 | -500 |
| After Game 5 | -240 | +198 |
Game 6 preview: It’s a Game 2 rematch — Yoshinobu Yamamoto for L.A. vs. Kevin Gausman for Toronto. Yamamoto’s complete-game win earlier in the series made him the first pitcher since 2001 to throw back-to-back postseason CGs, while Gausman has quietly put together a stellar October (2.55 ERA, 18 K in 24.2 IP).
MVP Watch:
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. has overtaken Shohei Ohtani as the new favourite for World Series MVP, sitting at -190 after another clutch home run in Game 5. Ohtani trails at +230, with no other player better than 15–1.
Toronto can clinch the title — and their first since Joe Carter’s walk-off — Saturday night at Rogers Centre.
