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.

Aaron Nola 7+ strikeouts and the Philadelphia Phillies to win – Boosted from +135 to +155 with PointsBet Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need Aaron Nola to record at least 7 strikeouts and the Philadelphia Phillies will need to win Game 3 against the Atlanta Braves. The Phillies did well to steal a road game, so now they have the opportunity to finish this series at home. Nola has been one of the best starters for the Phillies this season, posting an ERA of 3.25. More importantly, he recorded 285 strikeouts, the 4th most in the MLB this season. In his only playoff start so far, he recorded 6 strikeouts against the St. Louis Cardinals.

Going back to the regular season, he has recorded at least 7 strikeouts in 5 of his last 7 starts. In 5 starts against the Braves this season, he recorded at least 7 strikeouts in all 5 starts. Our experts like the Phillies to win Game 3 this afternoon, so backing Nola to have another dominant performance looks to be worth a play.

Manny Machado 1+ RBI and San Diego Padres to win – Boosted from +300 to +375 with PointsBet Sportsbook

This prop will need Manny Machado to record at least 1 RBI and the San Diego Padres will need to win Game 3 against the Los Angeles Dodgers tonight. The Padres evened up the series with a win in Game 2 and they will be looking to take advantage of their home field advantage tonight. Machado has already had a solid postseason, recording 5 RBI’s in 5 games. He has 2 RBI’s against the Dodgers already and should have more success at the plate tonight. Our experts do like the Dodgers to retake control of this series, especially with Tony Gonsolin on the mound. For that reason, avoiding this prop looks to be the best option.

SMU to score 35+ points and cover the spread (-12.5) – Boosted from +135 to +155 with PointsBet Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need SMU to score at least 35 points and they will need to cover -12.5 against the Navy Midshipmen. The Mustangs are averaging 34.6 points per game this season. they have scored 35 or points in only 2 games this season. The Midshipmen on the other hand, are allowing just 21 points per game and only 1 of their opponents have scored 25 points or more. Navy have only lost 1 game by more than 12 points, and our experts would also lean to a Navy cover. For that reason, avoiding this prop looks to be the best option.
