Phillies vs. Twins Betting Preview

Starting Pitchers

• Ranger Suarez had a terrific start to the season. But he’s not pitching like he had been. Suarez’s strikeouts are down, and his hard contact allowed has been up for the last 30 days.
• Bailey Ober has dominated righties more than at the start of the season. He’s only given up 17.5% of line drives over the last 30 days, resulting in many batters not getting on base.

Team Analysis

The Twins Don’t Strike Out

The Minnesota Twins’ projected lineup has struck out only 11.8% of the time against lefties over the last 30 days.

The Twins’ lineup has some new names and faces due to the latest MLB injuries.

Manuel Margot, Willi Castro, Byron Buxton, Carlos Santana, and Christian Vasquez have all hit a high ISO and wOBA against lefties over the last 30 days. Additionally, every batter but Diego Castillo has hit a wOBA of at least .338 against lefties over the previous month.

They’ll take on lefty Ranger Suarez, who, again, hasn’t been anything special recently. He’s still inducing a high rate of grounders but has allowed a .181 ISO and wOBA of .378 with only 16.7% of strikeouts over the last month.

Suarez hasn’t allowed a fly ball to a lefty in the last 30 days. However, the Twins will probably add a lineup of nine righties.

Those nine righties have struck out 11.8% of the time against lefties over the last 30 days. Ultimately, Suarez will give up hard contact and likely won’t add many strikeouts. That gives Minnesota an advantage offensively.

Bailey Ober Is Coming Around

While Ranger Suarez has earned much praise this season, it feels like Bailey Ober has gone underappreciated.

Over the last month, Ober has struck out 33% of batters and has held his previous 100 batters to 4% of walks. In addition, Ober has limited teams to a .246 wOBA over the last 30 days and has allowed just 17.5% of line drives.

Ober has been so good that he’s added 31.9% of whiffs and 17.9% of swinging strikes.

He’ll compete against a Phillies lineup with five batters with a strikeout rate of at least 21% over the last month. The Phillies’ projected lineup hasn’t added a high rate of walks and still has a few hitters with low ISO and wOBA numbers.

Therefore, after looking at the Phillies Twins betting odds, the Twins, at home, are more appealing, especially as underdogs. Take the Twins at -101 on the moneyline.
