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.
Gerrit Cole over 6.5 strikeouts and the New York Yankees to win – Boosted from +190 to +220 with PointsBet Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need Gerrit Cole to record at least 7 strikeouts and the New York Yankees will need to win Game 3 of the ALCS. The Yankees already have their backs to the wall, falling into a 0-2 hole with 2 road losses in Houston. This looks to be a good chance for a bounce back game though, as Cole will take the mound tonight. In 2 postseason starts this season, he has allowed 3 earned runs over 13.1 innings and has a total of 16 strikeouts. He had 8 strikeouts in each start against the Cleveland Guardians, and should have success tonight even against this loaded Astros lineup. Our experts do like the Astros to take a commanding 3-0 lead in the series, but this prop still looks to be worth a lean at Cole has the ability to dominate any lineup.

Alex Bregman over 0.5 hits and the Houston Astros to win – Boosted from +190 to +215 with PointsBet Sportsbook
This prop will need Alex Bregman to record at least 1 hit and the Houston Astros will need to beat the New York Yankees this evening. The Astros are rolling right now, winning both games in Houston and they have not lost a playoff game yet. Bregman is batting .318 in the postseason and has at least 1 hit in 4 of the 5 playoff games so far. He had 2 hits in Game 2 against the Yankees, which also included a home run and 3 RBI’s. Our experts like the Astros to win this evening, so even though we also like the previous prop involving Gerrit Cole, backing this prop also looks to be worth a play to have a stake on both sides of this game.
TCU Horned Frogs to lead at halftime and win – Boosted from +105 to +120 with PointsBet Sportsbook
For this prop, we will need the TCU Horned Frogs to lead at halftime against the Kansas State Wildcats and also to win the game. TCU continued their undefeated season last week with a double-overtime game against the Oklahoma State Cowboys. While it was a nice win, the Horned Frogs found themselves trailing at halftime in what was a sluggish first half. This game against the Cowboys was the only game all season where the Horned Frogs trailed at halftime, so expecting a better first half this week looks likely. Our experts do like Kansas State to cover, but TCU should still win this game outright, making this prop worth a small play.
