With the World Series pressure at its peak, individual matchups start to matter just as much as the final score, and that’s where prop bets can offer real value. Playoff baseball tightens every plate appearance, every pitch sequence, and every bullpen decision, creating windows where certain player trends stand out more than the market suggests.
Tonight’s matchup brings elite arms, red-hot hitters, and a few numbers that line up perfectly with recent form. After digging into performance patterns, pitch profiles, and situational trends, here are the best player props that carry both logic and value heading into tonight’s game.

### Today’s 5 Best MLB Prop Bets for Dodgers vs Blue Jays World Series Game 6
#### #5. Dodgers Moneyline −144
If there’s ever a spot to ride the Dodgers, it’s this one: a do-or-die Game 6 where everything they’ve built all season hangs in the balance. They just got punched in the mouth at home by Toronto in Game 5, a loss that flipped the energy inside Dodger Stadium and reminded everyone that October doesn’t care about resumes.
Now L.A. walks into Rogers Centre with its back slammed against the wall, needing a win to survive. Historically, this is when their stars play their sharpest baseball. This is the exact version of the Dodgers bettors trust: angry, cornered, and fully locked in.
Moneyline at −144 isn’t just a number—it’s a bet on a heavyweight that knows its season ends tonight unless it lands the final punch.
#### #4. Kevin Gausman Strikeouts Over 4.5 (−159)
In the postseason, Gausman has carried good form too: 24.2 postseason innings pitched, 18 strikeouts. If there was ever a night Kevin Gausman could etch his name into Toronto baseball history forever, it’s this one.
The Blue Jays are one win away from a World Series title, and suddenly the entire weight of a franchise, a fanbase, and a 32-year drought sits on the shoulders of the veteran righty.
Betting him for more than 4.5 strikeouts is essentially backing his baseline workload and strikeout profile rather than asking for an outlier. Expect Gausman to attack the zone and rack up swinging strikes if he’s given length.
#### #3. Shohei Ohtani: Total Bases 2+ (−110)
Ohtani’s bat is the single most dangerous one in this series. He slammed two homers and reached base nine times in the 18-inning Game 3 explosion, and he carries a monstrous 2025 power resume into every World Series start.
He’s not just a one-swing threat; Ohtani’s plate profile means he puts himself into multiple extra-base opportunities per game. His October track record shows he’s seeing the ball better than ever, and at −110, we’re getting fair value on a hitter who’s been doing this all month.
#### #2. NRFI (No Run First Inning): YES (Under 0.5) (−120)
With Yoshinobu Yamamoto and Kevin Gausman opening Game 6, the first inning has all the makings of a tight, low-contact heavyweight round.
Yamamoto has locked in after a shaky start to October and has leaned heavily on his splitter early to neutralize top-of-the-order threats. Gausman’s splitter-four-seam combo tends to be sharpest before hitters settle in.
With two aces settling into a must-win environment, the NRFI at −120 feels like one of the most stable props on the board tonight.
#### #1. Kevin Gausman: Hits Allowed Over 4.5 (−107)
The tricky part about Gausman tonight is that even if he’s pitching well, he’s almost destined to give up hits—not because he’s struggling, but because Toronto needs him to stretch deeper than usual in a potential championship clincher.
With workload likely pushing him into the fifth inning at minimum, the Over 4.5 hits isn’t fading him as much as it’s respecting the reality: to win the World Series tonight, he’s going to have to navigate traffic.
