Toronto Blue Jays vs Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 4/26/24, 3:11 PM  by Lou Aguila in MLB Picks

After losing 7 of their last 9 games, the Los Angeles Dodgers have regained their winning form after sweeping all three games in the just-concluded series with the Washington Nationals. On Friday, they will be taking on the Toronto Blue Jays who just came from a seven-game road trip. The Dodgers, the No.1 team in the NL West standings with a 16-11, saw another impressive pitching performance from rookie pitcher Yoshinobu Yamamoto, who pitched six shutout innings with seven strikeouts in a 2-1 win over the Nationals. The Blue Jays kicked off their road trip on a positive note by winning 2 of their 3 games vs. the San Diego Padres. However, right after winning their season opener vs the Royals, the Jays’ level of play started to fall off, losing the last three games of the four-game series. Gavin Stone, the Dodgers' right-handed pitcher (1-1, 6.00 ERA, 16 strikeouts), is scheduled to make his fifth start. Chriss Bassitt (2-3, 3.90 ERA, 26 strikeouts) will want to rebound from a poor performance in his previous start.
