#917 ASA PLAY ON Los Angeles Dodgers -145 over Toronto Blue Jays, Saturday at 3:07 PM ET - Two teams trending opposite directions and because Kikuchi has solid numbers on the hill for Toronto, line value is available to take the Dodgers with Glasnow on the mound.  Dodgers on the road so the money line is kept to a moderate level here.  LA has been piling up runs while the Jays are struggling to score.  After yesterday's 12-2 slaughter in favor of Los Angeles, the Blue Jays have lost 4 straight games and 5 of last 6.  In those 5 games they scored an average of 2 runs per game!  One was a 5-inning game yet still we are talking about 10 runs scored in 4 and a 1/2 games if one gets technical about it.  As for the Dodgers, they have won 5 straight games and scored an average of 7.8 runs in those 5 victories.  Huge hitting edge here as Los Angeles has been the better team at the plate all season long already.  Also, LA is 7-3 versus lefty starters this season and Toronto is 10-13 versus righty starters this season.  Kikuchi has been solid this season but Glasnow has been even stronger overall.  Glasnow had one tough start but has been phenomenal overall in the other 4 outings including his last 2 sandwiched around the one rare, tough outing.  Those two starts saw Glasnow allow just 10 hits while striking out 24 in 15 scoreless innings.  The Dodgers are loaded with hitters who have had success against Kikuchi while the Blue Jays only have Guerrero and Springer as the two guys with some success against Glasnow and both those guys have had early season struggles thus far.  Lay it with the road team here!  Dodgers get the call in this one Saturday.
