Shane Drohan’s Versatility and Spot Start Potential Give First-Place Brewers a Massive Boost
Shane Drohan has been outstanding out of the bullpen lately, pitching to a stellar 3.07 ERA and 1.07 WHIP with 24 strikeouts over his last 20.5 innings. He currently slots in as the primary long reliever for the first-place Brewers (41-25). With Milwaukee's pitching staff heavily depleted by injuries to key arms like DL Hall and Brandon Woodruff, Drohan's versatility has become indispensable to the team's success.
Comparing his hot streak to our projections, some regression could be on the horizon as our models forecast a 4.24 ERA and 1.35 WHIP. Still, his career 3.27 ERA and 1.17 WHIP suggest he is fully capable of maintaining respectable ratios. His high strikeout upside, highlighted by a 10.54 K/9 over the last 30 days, makes him much more than just a standard middle-relief option.
Looking at the remaining matchups, Drohan is scheduled to make a spot start on June 13 at home against the Phillies and Aaron Nola, who is struggling with a 5.86 ERA. Our weekly projection expects 4.1 innings of work with a sharp 2.81 ERA and 3.3 strikeouts. Due to this favorable matchup and his potential to log bulk frames, he is a fantastic option to plug into lineups. Verdict: Stream.

Yoendrys Gomez Seizes Twins Closing Role with Dominant Late-Inning Surge
Since being traded to Minnesota, Gomez has established himself as the primary closer in the Twins' bullpen, currently sitting atop the depth chart. Over the last 30 days, he has excelled with a sparkling 1.64 ERA and 19 strikeouts across 11 innings. Despite the third-place Twins (31-38) battling injuries to bullpen arms like Cole Sands, Gomez's high-leverage security is at an all-time high.
While Gomez's season-long 4.41 ERA and 1.54 WHIP reflect some early struggles, his recent stretch shows he is turning a corner. His career numbers indicate that walk issues can occasionally lead to heavy traffic, but our season model projects him for 56 strikeouts over 75 innings, which should help mitigate ratio damage. Gomez's elite strikeout stuff, averaging over a strikeout per inning lately, makes this recent surge look like a sustainable breakout.
Looking at the remaining slate, the Twins wrap up their series in Detroit against Keider Montero before hosting a three-game series against the Cardinals. St. Louis will run out vulnerable arms like Kyle Leahy (4.42 ERA) and Matthew Liberatore (4.48 ERA), presenting excellent opportunities for the Twins' offense to build leads. Gomez is projected for a solid week with multiple save opportunities on the horizon. Weekly Verdict: Start.
