Bailey Ober Struggles in Loss to Royals
by Jesse Garcia | Twins Correspondent | Thu, May 30th 8:17am EDT
Bailey Ober endured a rough outing, allowing six earned runs on nine hits while striking out four over five innings in Wednesday's 6-1 loss to the Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
This performance certainly didn't do any favors for his season ERA, which climbed to 4.89, though his WHIP remains a respectable 1.11. Despite a solid strikeout rate of 9.2 K/9 and a strong strikeout-to-walk ratio of 4.83, Ober's inconsistency in limiting hits and runs has been a thorn in the side for fantasy managers relying on him for quality starts. Given the volatility in his performances, fantasy managers might consider him a risky play, primarily depending on the matchup. His ability to strike out batters remains a silver lining, but those in shallower leagues might start looking for more reliable options.
