We have put together a list of all of the day’s best odds boosts, which are from PointsBet Sportsbook. We will discuss whether or not they are worth playing. Let’s dive in.

Paul Goldschmidt 2+ hits and the St. Louis Cardinals to win – Boosted from +280 to +350 with PointsBet Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Paul Goldschmidt to record at least 2 hits and the St. Louis Cardinals to beat the Milwaukee Brewers. Goldschmidt is having a fantastic season, batting .329 on the season, the 2nd-best figure in the league. He went hitless last night, but has still had 4 multi-hit games over his last 8 games. Tonight is a much more favorable pitching matchup against Chi Chi Gonzalez for the Cardinals compared to Corbin Burnes last night. For that reason, we like the Cardinals to win, which makes this prop worth a play tonight.

Zac Gallen over 4.5 strikeouts and the Arizona Diamondbacks to win – Boosted from +210 to +240 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop needs Zac Gallen to record over 4.5 strikeouts and the Arizona Diamondbacks to beat the San Diego Padres tonight. Gallen is 4-2 on the season and has an ERA of 2.91. He has 60 strikeouts on the year. In 12 starts, Gallen has had at least 5 strikeouts in 7 of them. Our experts like the Diamondbacks to win based on the recent form of Gallen. The Padres are 14th in the MLB in strikeouts, so Gallen could certainly reach at least 5 tonight, which should make this prop worth a small play.

Kevin Gausman over 4.5 strikeouts and Dylan Cease over 7.5 strikeouts – Boosted from +140 to +160 with PointsBet Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Kevin Gausman to record over 4.5 strikeouts for the Toronto Blue Jays and Dylan Cease for the Chicago White Sox will need to record over 7.5 strikeouts. Gausman is 5-6 on the season and has 80 strikeouts on the season, tied for 20th in MLB. He has reached at least 5 strikeouts in 9 of his 13 starts. He also previously faced the White Sox this season, striking out 5 batters, so this is a number he could reach.

Cease is 5-3 on the season and has an ERA of 2.91. He has 97 strikeouts this season, which is 5th-most in the league. In 13 starts this season, he has recorded over 7.5 strikeouts 9 times, including each of his last 2 starts. Overall, the Blue Jays are 22nd in strikeouts, while the White Sox are 27th. However, both of these starters are in solid form and have an arsenal of pitchers that could frustrate the hitters for both sides. For that reason, this looks to be a prop worth backing.
