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

Jorge Soler to hit a home run – Boosted from +300 to +380 with DraftKings Sportsbook

Jorge Soler started the World Series off on Tuesday night with a long home run and the Braves never looked back. Doing the same in back-to-back games seems unlikely, but with the amount of power he has, another home run is never out of the question. The Astros’ starter is not a guy that is unhittable, so backing this prop as a small lean will be the play.

Jose Altuve to have 2+ hits– Boosted from +165 to +200 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Jose Altuve to have a bounce-back night. He went hitless in Game 1 and will need 2 hits in Game 2 tonight for this prop. Though he will be going up against Max Fried, who had a fantastic second half of the season. Getting a hit against Fried is usually tough, but getting 2 is even harder. For that reason, this prop is probably worth staying away from.

Trae Young to record 30+ points – Boosted from +250 to +300 with DraftKings Sportsbook

The Atlanta Hawks will take on the New Orleans Pelicans tonight and here we will need Trae Young to have another breakout game. He will need 30 points against a struggling Pelicans’ team with just 1 win. Young is averaging 29.3 points per game and while this is slightly below the number we need, Young is more than capable of dropping 30+ on any night. For that reason, this prop is worth a shot.

Philadelphia Flyers to score 4+ goals – Boosted from +140 to +160 with DraftKings Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need the Philadelphia Flyers to score at least 4 goals. They will be playing the Edmonton Oilers, so goals are likely to come in bunches. The Flyers are averaging 4.5 goals per game this season and have scored at least 4 in 3 of their 4 games. Because the Oilers’ defense can be lacking, backing this prop looks to be worth the play.

Jayson Tatum and LaMelo Ball to each make 3 or more threes – Boosted from +190 to +250 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need both LaMelo Ball and Jayson Tatum to each make at least 3 3-pointers. Ball and the Hornets will be playing the Magic, while the Celtics will be playing the Wizards. Ball is 16 for 32 this season from 3-point range and has made at least 3 deep-range shots in 2 of the 4 games played. As for Tatum, he is 14 for 42 from long range over his first 4 games and has made 3 from behind the arc in 2 of the 4 games. Because both guys are shooting decently from 3-point range, so this prop looks to be worth a play.

Washington Capitals, Toronto Maple Leafs & Florida Panthers all to win – Boosted from +270 to +350 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we will need 3 teams to win their games tonight. We love the Capitals to beat the Red Wings, like the Maple Leafs to beat the Blackhawks and like the Panthers to beat the Bruins. Because all 3 teams look to have favorable matchups, backing this parlay will be worth a play.
