The Toronto Blue Jays will have their hands full when they host the Los Angeles Dodgers tonight in Game 1 of the World Series. The Dodgers made it look easy to get to this point by sweeping the Milwaukee Brewers, easily dismantling the Philadelphia Phillies, and also sweeping the Cincinnati Reds. LA is expected to give the nod to southpaw Blake Snell and he has been almost unhittable this postseason. Snell is 3-0 with a nasty ERA of 0.86 and a WHIP barely visible at 0.52. He last faced Toronto back in August, pitching 5 scoreless innings and the Dodgers went on to a 9-1 rout. Toronto had to fight and scratch to get to the Finals and are expected to have the rookie, Trey Yesavage, on the hill. Yesavage was 2-1 in the postseason with an elevated 4.20 ERA, a 1.07 WHIP, and has never face the likes of Shohei Ohtani, Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman, and the list goes on. Good luck Toronto, you are going to need it.
