Toronto Blue Jays

Blue Jays (68-48) VS Dodgers (66-49)

Aug 08, 2025 | 10:10 PM ET | Dodger Stadium

Los Angeles Dodgers
Moneyline Pick - Toronto (+122): B

Toronto enters this matchup in strong form, pairing reliable starting pitching with a bullpen that has been among the league’s best since the break. Los Angeles, meanwhile, remains without key contributors and has seen less consistency from its relief corps in recent weeks. With a healthier roster and a starter capable of matching up well against this Dodgers lineup, the Blue Jays hold a situational and statistical edge that makes the underdog price appealing for this prediction.

From a betting perspective, this is the type of pick where current form and roster stability outweigh home-field advantage. Toronto’s ability to limit runs late and capitalize on scoring chances gives them a realistic path to control the game. While Los Angeles always poses a threat offensively, the balance of recent performance leans toward the visitors. For those seeking value in a matchup between playoff contenders, this bet offers both upside and reasoned support.

Over/Under Pick - Over 9 (-110): B-

Both teams bring dangerous bats into this matchup, with Los Angeles still producing at an elite clip at home and Toronto swinging well during its recent surge. The offensive upside is paired with weather conditions that could give well-struck balls extra carry, adding another layer to the scoring potential. With the Dodgers’ bullpen in use for a third straight day, there’s an increased chance for late-inning production, making the over an attractive angle for this prediction.

From a betting perspective, this pick leans on the convergence of offensive form, environmental boost, and bullpen fatigue. Even with quality starting pitching on display, the depth of each lineup and their recent hard-contact rates point toward opportunities for multiple scoring bursts. Past meetings have supported this trend, giving bettors historical and situational reasons to expect runs. For those looking to ride offensive momentum, this bet offers a solid case.

Spread Pick - Toronto +1.5 (-160): B+

Toronto’s strong recent record against the spread has been fueled by late-game stability from its bullpen, giving them an edge in holding close contests. Los Angeles has been less reliable in covering when its starter faces early traffic, creating potential for the Blue Jays to stay within striking distance. With a key bat expected back in the lineup and solid results on the road this season, the extra run and a half adds valuable protection for this prediction.

From a betting standpoint, this pick focuses on game-flow tendencies and late-inning reliability. Toronto’s ability to limit damage in the final frames pairs well with the insurance of the run line, especially against a Dodgers team capable of explosive but sometimes uneven offense. For bettors aiming to balance upside with a built-in cushion, this approach offers a measured way to back the visitors.
