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

New Jersey Devils to score 4+ goals – Boosted from +125 to +135 with DraftKings Sportsbook

This prop will focus on the New Jersey Devils scoring goals. They will be facing the Chicago Blackhawks tonight and will need to score 4 times. Our experts like the over in this game, which would suggest goals will be coming from both sides. The Blackhawks’ defense looked poor against the Avalanche and even though the Devils do not have the greatest offense, backing this prop still looks to be worth a small play.

Clemson & Syracuse to combine for under 40 points – Boosted from +175 to +200 with DraftKings Sportsbook

Clemson and Syracuse will face off tonight in the Carrier Dome. As bad as Clemson’s offense has been, their defense is still a force. The Orange will likely have a tough time moving the ball, which should lead to a low-scoring game. We also like the Orange to cover, so backing this prop looks to be worth a play.

Kike Hernandez to have 2+ hits – Boosted from +275 to +350 with DraftKings Sportsbook

The ALCS will begin tonight between the Houston Astros and the Boston Red Sox. This prop will focus on Kike Hernandez. He had a great series against the Rays, going 10 of 23 (.435) over 4 games. We will need him to have 2 hits tonight in Game 1, something that he should be able to do.

Over 7.5 total runs & Boston Red Sox to win – Boosted from +270 to +330 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this prop, we will need runs to be scored and the Red Sox to steal Game 1 in Houston. Our experts already like the over, plus we also like a Red Sox win with Chris Sale on the mound. For that reason, this looks to be a prop worth backing.

New Jersey Devils & Philadelphia Flyers both to win – Boosted from +190 to +240 with FanDuel Sportsbook

For this parlay, we will need 2 teams to win their games tonight. We do like the Philadelphia Flyers to beat the Vancouver Canucks without too much trouble. However, our experts would lean to the Chicago Blackhawks outlasting the New Jersey Devils in what we believe will be a high-scoring game. Because of our lack of confidence in New Jersey, avoiding this parlay looks to be the best option.

Carlos Correa to record a hit and the Astros win – Boosted from +135 to +150 with PointsBet Sportsbook

Going back to Game 1 of the ALCS and here we will need Carlos Correa to record a hit and the Astros to win. Correa played well in the ALDS, going 5 of 13 (.385) against the White Sox. However, because our experts would lean to the Boston side, avoiding this prop looks to be the best option.
