Two-time Cy Young Award winner Blake Snell will take the mound for the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1 of the 2025 World Series where he’ll be opposed by a guy who began the year pitching for the Dunedin Blue Jays of the Class-A Florida State League. The rise of Trey Yesavage has been meteoric […]
The hallmark of the baseball season, the World Series kicks off tonight with the Los Angeles Dodgers heading to Toronto to play the Blue Jays. The Blue Jays serve as the hosts for the first few games, winning 94 games in the regular season to the Dodgers’ 93. After Toronto’s achingly close series against the […]

It’s time to crown a 2025 champion. Who will it be, Toronto or Los Angeles? Let’s discuss.
The Dodgers have settled into a fairly regular lineup, especially with no more opposing left-handed starters to face. Their lineup in Game 1 of the World Series against the Blue Jays on Friday night at Rogers Centre in Toronto features the same starting nine players for a fifth straight game. Shohei Ohtani leads off, which […]
We have a Fall Classic matchup between the National League’s chalk pick and one of the more surprising American League winners, at least based on preseason projections. The Toronto Blue Jays will welcome the reigning and defending World Series champion Dodgers tonight for the first Fall Classic in Canada since 1993, and the big face-off […]
Second verse, same as the first. (Hopefully). Tonight, the Los Angeles Dodgers look to finish what they started, defending their World Series title from 2024. They will face the Toronto Blue Jays in what is shaping up to be a battle of the most annoying cliches and narratives. USA vs. Canada. Good vs Evil. David […]
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the MLB. Throughout the year, we ask questions of the most plugged-in Kansas City Royals fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in the weekly emailed surveys. Earlier this week, we asked Royals fans whether the Dodgers’ excessive spending or the Royals’ lack of spending […]
The 2025 MLB playoffs began without a clear favorite. Jeff Passan’s postseason preview opened with the line, “The Los Angeles Dodgers were supposed to break baseball. Instead they just broke.” Eighteen days later, Dave Roberts accepted the Warren C. Giles Trophy for clinching the NLCS and said, “Let’s get four more wins and really ruin […]
After a thrilling win (or crushing defeat for Mariners fans), the Toronto Blue Jays earned the right to meet the Los Angeles Dodgers in the 2025 World Series. The Blue Jays will make their first appearance in the World Series since 1993, when they won 4-2 over the Phillies. For those counting at home, it’s […]
The 2025 World Series kicks off tonight, pairing the reigning champions, the Los Angeles Dodgers, against the surprise AL-winners, the Toronto Blue Jays (the only team that makes the “World” Series remotely international). It should be an exciting showdown of generational talent, and a chance to see Clayton Kershaw’s final major league appearances (his inclusion […]
For the Astros’ fan, deprived of any meaningful games since late September, this World Series might not seem worth watching. Hard to blame the Houston fan for thinking that. The only notable Astros news centers on the purges of coaches/trainers and the signing of a depth piece at pitcher. Still, a World Series is a […]
Happy Friday A’s fans! The 2025 World Series begins tonight in Toronto as the Blue Jays host the Los Angeles Dodgers for the first game of the series. As the #1 seed the Jays get home-field advantage thus getting to host the first two games before the series shifts to LA. Still, let there be […]
After the Dodgers exposed the Yankees’ defensive shortcomings last October — and reveled in twisting the knife in the months that followed — GM Brian Cashman faced questions all offseason about how he’d bolster his defensive unit. The results were a mixed bag. Newcomers like Cody Bellinger and Ryan McMahon shored up problem areas from […]
In the off chance you weren’t aware, the World Series officially begins tonight when the Toronto Blue Jays host the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 1 of the best of seven series. Blake Snell will take the mound for the Dodgers against Trey Yesavage for the Blue Jays at 8pm tonight. The Dodgers are looking to […]
A few days after their season ended, Matt Arnold and Pat Murphy met with the press on Thursday for their end-of-year press conference. Murphy talked about the Dodgers’ series and offered some interesting thoughts on his team, and we got a few newsy tidbits as well. Murphy discusses the Dodgers series Not that we need […]
Good morning, baseball fans! The world’s biggest Toronto Blue Jays fan has arrived to discuss tonight’s World Series Game 1 between the Blue Jays and the Los Angeles Dodgers from the Rogers Centre in Toronto. Taking the mound for the Dodgers will be left-hander and former/not-forever Giant Blake Snell, who finished the regular season with […]
Today is the big day! The World Series kicks off this weekend between the predicted juggernauts the Los Angeles Dodgers, and the surprise AL win-leaders the Toronto Blue Jays. While Cubs fans would much rather they were still in the mix, and Mariners fans are still mourning their best postseason run yet, there will be […]
The culmination of the 2025 Major League Baseball season is here, with the Los Angeles Dodgers taking on the Toronto Blue Jays for this year’s World Series title. Of course, the Detroit Tigers were a part of the postseason action, but they faltered in the ALDS against the Seattle Mariners in a white-knuckle five-game series. […]
Good morning, Camden Chatters. Our torturous hiatus from baseball is over. After a three-day break following the Championship Series round, the World Series begins tonight. It’ll be the Dodgers (bleh) against the Blue Jays (yuck) in a matchup in which I, personally, will be rooting for the meteor. First pitch of Game 1 is scheduled […]
The Game One starting pitchers for the World Series have been named. Blake Snell will be getting the start for the Los Angeles Dodgers, while Trey Yesavage will be starting for the Toronto Blue Jays. Snell only made 11 regular season starts for the Dodgers but was excellent in those outings, putting up a 2.35 […]
My first conscious memory of the Silver Slugger award was opening a pack of Upper Deck baseball cards and pulling out a Daryl Strawberry card (when he was on the Dodgers) with a Silver Slugger award logo in the corner. I asked my dad, “What’s a Silver Slugger?” and he probably said something like “oh […]
I know, I know, the Brewers aren’t in the World Series. It’s unfortunate. Still, it will be an interesting series (with potential collective bargaining ramifications!) as the Los Angeles Dodgers and Toronto Blue Jays take the field. Check out some of the connections these teams have to Wisconsin and the Brewers here! The Dodgers are […]
The 2025 World Series is set! The National League champion Los Angeles Dodgers will attempt to win their second consecutive championship, and standing in their way, are the American League champs, the Toronto Blue Jays. I understand that many Phillies fans might have lost interest in the baseball playoffs as soon as Orion Kerkering threw […]
The 2025 World Series is set to begin Friday evening in Toronto as the Blue Jays take on the Los Angeles Dodgers, who are looking to defend their title after taking the 2024 edition.
