San Diego Padres DFS SPIN
Yu Darvish won after allowing two runs — one earned — in 6 2/3 innings Friday against the Dodgers. Darvish has pitched tough against the Dodgers in recent years, turning in eight quality starts in 11 tries against baseball’s best team since he joined the Padres in 2021. He’s now 2-2 with a 3.19 ERA this season. It looks like he’ll miss next weekend’s series versus the Dodgers, instead facing the Twins on Wednesday and the Royals the following week.
Minnesota Twins DFS SPIN
Bailey Ober was brilliant in Friday’s 2-0 victory over the Guardians, allowing just three hits over seven scoreless innings. Ober was very efficient, walking just one batter while striking out six and throwing 66 out of his 91 pitches for strikes. He also racked up 15 swinging strikes. The final out of his night came on a clutch throw from Donovan Solano to nail José Ramírez at home plate. Ober has had some lucky draws thus far (Nationals, Royals, and Guardians), but he’s doing exactly what he should do.
