Bailey Ober DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Bailey Ober picked up his fourth win of the season in Saturday's 4-3 victory over the Boston Red Sox. The North Carolina native scattered seven hits (one double), allowing one earned run and striking out six while issuing one free pass. He fired 62 of 94 pitches for strikes, inducing 18 swings-and-misses for a strong 32% CSW% in the quality start. Ober mostly cruised through this one, running into trouble in the third inning when Jarren Duran doubled and was driven in a batter later by Rafael Devers after reaching third on a Carlos Correa error. He'd recover, though, and let up just three singles thereafter. The 29-year-old has been fine thus far in 2025, and will carry a 3.72 ERA and 1.34 WHIP with a 4-1 record into his next start, which projects to come against the San Francisco Giants at home late next week.

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Bailey Ober continued to turn things around in Monday's 11-1 win over the Guardians. Ober pitched 7 2/3 innings, allowing one run on eight hits and no walks with two strikeouts. The 29-year-old managed just 6 2/3 IP combined in his first two starts, but he has turned in four consecutive quality starts since. Ober is now 3-1 with a 4.13 ERA, a 1.35 WHIP, and a 6.89 K/9 rate in 32 2/3 IP. His peripherals are still relatively bloated, but he has looked much better since his disastrous first start. He will look to extend his quality start streak in his next start, which will be a tough matchup at the Red Sox.

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Bailey Ober was sharp on the mound during Thursday's outing against the Kansas City Royals. The right-hander went six innings, allowing five hits, one earned run, and striking out four batters in the no-decision. Ober was hit around in the first inning, but he settled down nicely after that. He has posted back-to-back outings with only one earned run, but his ERA is still 7.11 because he was crushed in his season opener. The veteran right-hander is scheduled to pitch against the New York Mets next week. That's not exactly a favorable matchup for Ober, but he appears to be getting back on track now.
