Eligibility
Bailey Ober earned the win, allowing four earned runs on six hits and striking out three over six innings in Wednesday's 10-5 victory over the White Sox.
Fantasy Impact
Despite giving up a quartet of runs, Ober managed to keep his walks at bay, issuing none, which helped him navigate through the Chicago lineup effectively enough to secure his third win of the season. His performance today, characterized by a mix of susceptibility and control, mirrors his season thus far—solid WHIP and FIP numbers suggest underlying skills that could lead to more consistent outcomes. Fantasy managers should note his improved command as a positive takeaway, though the modest strikeout numbers might limit his ceiling in categories heavily reliant on Ks.
Bailey Ober delivered a strong performance in the Twins' 5-3 win over the Angels on Friday.
Fantasy Impact
He allowed two earned runs on three hits and three walks while striking out eight over 7 1/3 innings. This outing marks a continuation of Ober's solid start to the season, improving his ERA to 4.21 and WHIP to 1.05. His ability to maintain a high strikeout rate (8.8 K/9) and a favorable strikeout-to-walk ratio (3.57) suggests he could be a reliable option in fantasy rotations, especially considering his low BABIP (.254), which indicates some good fortune. Fantasy managers should consider Ober a viable starting option, particularly in matchups where his strikeout potential can be maximized.
Bailey Ober will now start on Friday against the Angels.
Fantasy Impact

Bailey Ober delivered a strong performance, allowing just one earned run on two hits and one walk while striking out six over six innings in Saturday's 4-3 win against the Tigers.
Fantasy Impact
This outing was a refreshing display of control and efficiency from Ober, allowing one run or less for the third consecutive start on the mound for the Twins. His ability to limit hits and maintain a solid strikeout rate in this game could hint at a positive adjustment in his approach or mechanics. Given his improved performance and a decent 4.25 strikeout-to-walk ratio, fantasy managers should consider Ober a potential streaming option, especially when he shows signs of consistency like today. His FIP of 4.18 suggests some underlying skills that could lead to more outings like this, making him a player to watch in the coming weeks.
