Orioles vs Twins Best Bet
Gunnar Henderson isn't just a talented young player; according to Batters-Box.com, he's also elite today. The Orioles shortstop boasts the best rating in this matchup.
Despite a mediocre April, Henderson seems to be turning things around. With six hits, a double, and two runs across his first four games in May, this could be the month we see him shine. While his current stats stand at a .252 average, three home runs, five RBI, and a .719 OPS, his elite rating suggests further success.
Coming up, Henderson facesTwins starter Simeon Woods Richardson, who holds a 4.03 ERA and a 1.45 WHIP. Henderson thrives against pitches that Woods Richardson favors, with a .314 batting average and a .905 OPS against fastballs. On top of that, Henderson is hitting .364 with an .871 OPS against changeups—two pitches that make up around 60% of Woods Richardson's arsenal.
With Henderson seeing the ball so well right now, and his strengths aligned with Woods Richardson's tendencies, this feels like a fantastic opportunity to back the Orioles' shortstop. Here's hoping he can help turn this team around, because they certainly need it.
