Blue Jays Take Control — One Win Away from Glory

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.
