The Los Angeles Dodgers and the Toronto Blue Jays are ready for the 2025 World Series, with two of baseball's top players, Shohei Ohtani and Vladimir Guerrero Jr., going head-to-head starting Friday.

Shohei Ohtani is favored to win World Series MVP, which is no surprise, but history says he probably won't win it.

No doubt the intrigue lies in wondering what the Dodgers and the Blue Jays could possibly do for an encore following the thrills each provided in winning the National and American League pennants, respectively.

John Schneider is waiting for Shohei Ohtani to return some items to the Toronto Blue Jays. Before signing a $700 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers, Ohtani met with Blue Jays officials in December 2023.

An ailing Ohtani was a shell of himself in last year's World Series. This time, he's coming off a game for the ages.

Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts sent a clear message to his young outfielder ahead of the World Series.

The questions over Shohei Ohtani playing both ways have subsided, but when they return, remember how special he is.
