Bailey Ober Encouraged by Last Start of Spring
Bailey Ober improved his pitching velocity by 1.4 mph after winter rehab and mechanical changes, positioning him to start the Twins' third game of the season.
- On Monday, Bailey Ober, the Minnesota Twins starting pitcher, allowed 10 hits in 4 1/3 innings, but his four-seam fastball was up 1.4 mph.
- After a winter spent working on his mechanics and rehabbing a hip that affected him in 2025, Ober made delivery changes to move down the mound quicker and use his 6-foot-9 frame.
- Earlier in camp his velocity rose but dipped as spring training wore on, and in his penultimate start he did not throw a pitch above 90 mph.
- The Twins, without Pablo López, face rotation pressure as David Festa rehabs a shoulder impingement in Fort Myers and is two to three weeks from mound work.
- Finishing camp on Tuesday, the Twins will have Mick Abel pitch against Boston, then depart Fort Myers for Baltimore to begin the season on Thursday.
