    Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Bailey Ober.

    After two straight winners to start the week, we took a step back with Jaylen Waddle going under his receiving yards prop on "Thursday Night Football." Let's bounce back and bring some good vibes to the weekend with our favorite MLB prop for Friday night's slate.

    Look of the Day: Bailey Ober under 4.5 hits allowed (+110 DraftKings )

    The Minnesota Twins are hosting the Cincinnati Reds on Friday night, and we're looking for Bailey Ober to put up a great performance on the mound in a solid matchup.

    Ober has dominated this Reds lineup in the past. In 52 combined plate appearances against the right-hander, current Reds hitters are batting just .109 with a .234 xwOBA and a .238 xSLG. Not only has this lineup struggled against Ober, but it's also been ice cold against any pitcher with a heartbeat. The Reds rank dead last in MLB in wRC+ (41), 29th in OPS (.499) and 27th in batting average (.194) against righties over the last week.

    Ober has been fantastic for the Twins of late. The 25-year-old has given up two or fewer runs in 11 of his last 14 starts, and he's been lights out in August with just two hits allowed, one earned run and 15 strikeouts in 13.0 innings of work.

    Ober has gone under this line in 18 of his 27 starts this season and eight of his last 10. Let's keep that streak going.
