I expect Ohtani to shine on the biggest stage.

The Yankees had a 3.74 ERA in the regular season (110 ERA+); the Dodgers, 3.90 and 99 respectively. Additionally, two of the Dodgers' top starters in the regular season, Stone and Glasnow, are injured. The Dodgers do have better batting, but in my opinion their pitching is substantially inferior.
I'm hoping for Yankees in seven. I think the two teams are essentially even - both had Pythagorean win-losses of 96-66 in the regular season - so we'll just see what happens.
