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

Bryce Harper to hit a home run – Boosted from +475 to +695 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop will need Bryce Harper to hit a home run this afternoon against the San Francisco Giants. Harper is batting .320 on the season, but has just 15 home runs to show for it.  He has not hit a home run since the early part of June and now will have to face Carlos Rodon. He has allowed 10 home runs this season, but because Harper has gone through several months without hitting a single home run, avoiding this prop looks to be the best option on Sunday afternoon.

Manny Machado 1+ RBI and San Diego Padres to win – Boosted from +300 to +390 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop will need Manny Machado to record at least 1 RBI and the San Diego Padres to beat Los Angeles Dodgers. Machado is batting .306 on the season and has 88 RBIs. He has recorded 7 RBIs in his last 4 games and 9 RBIs in his last 7 games. His last 2 games have been against the Dodgers as well where he has homered in each, driving in a total of 3 runs. The Padres will face Caleb Ferguson for the Dodgers tonight, who has an ERA of 1.85. However, this will be his first start — which could be a cause for concern. Our experts do like the Dodgers to win tonight, however; with the odds being offered for this prop, backing Machado to provide some offense paired with a Padres upset win looks to be worth a small play.

LSU to lead at halftime and win – Boosted from -105 to +110 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop will need LSU to lead at halftime and also win outright. The Tigers face Florida State on Sunday Night and it will be the debut for head coach Brian Kelly. The Seminoles have the edge with having played a game in week 0, but the Tigers have the advantage in the fact that the Seminoles do not really know what type of scheme Kelly will employ with his new team. LSU looks to be a more talented team regardless and should be able to jump on Florida State early. Our experts love the Tigers tonight to cover and win, so also backing them to lead at the halftime break looks to be well worth a play to begin the Kelly era on a winning note.
