Minnesota Twins starter Bailey Ober had one of his best starts of the season on Sunday against the Toronto Blue Jays. The towering right-hander picked up the win after tossing 6 1/3 scoreless innings and allowed a single hit. He struck out a season-high 10 batters without issuing a walk. Ober had a horrific first start way back in March when he gave up eight earned runs in 1 1/3 innings, but he has been dialled in ever since. He now owns a 4-1 record to go along with a 3.71 ERA, 0.88 WHIP and 45:8 K:BB across eight appearances. Ober is an automatic start regardless of opponent at this point.
Minnesota Twins right-hander Bailey Ober will look to keep rolling on Friday when he hits the road for a matchup with the Los Angeles Angels. The towering 6-foor-9 righty was lit up for eight earned runs in just 1 1/3 innings in his season debut on March 31 but has since allowed all of two earned runs over his last three starts spanning 17 innings of work. He dominated the Tigers over his last two starts, tossing 12 innings of one-run ball by allowing just five hits and one walk against nine punchouts. He still owns a 4.91 ERA due to his first start of the season but he also sports a 3.98 SIERA and has walked just 5.3% of the hitters he has faced. He'll take on an Angels team that is tied for 19th with a .319 wOBA on the season.
Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Bailey Ober has made two starts in the Grapefruit League this spring and been very impressive. In two starts thus far, Ober has allowed five runs (one earned), three hits, two walks and struck out 10. Seven of those 10 K's were in his most recent outing. Ober, 28, has had his fair share of injuries in his young career, but made a career-high 26 starts in 2023. In that span, he was 8-6 with a 3.43 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 146 strikeouts over 144 1/3 innings. Ober has quietly flown under the radar when health is on his side and with an ADP of 155, he should be able to return strong value in all formats.
