Jarren Duran Knocks In Run In Win
Jarren Duran went 0-for-3 with an RBI and a strikeout in Thursday's 5-0 win over the Texas Rangers. The 28-year-old has scuffled a bit recently, going 1-for-16 over his last four outings. Duran's mini-slump comes after a hot stretch over the past few weeks in which he hit .317 (27-for-85) with at least one knock in 17 of 19 contests. He dealt with a cold spell in May of 2024 before he really turned it on in the summer months, so we know he's capable of bouncing back after a drought. Furthermore, he had out-produced his xBA over the last two years and is underperforming it right now, signaling he could rebound quickly. That tracks, considering his average exit velocity and hard-hit rates are better than they were last season, with a lower strikeout percentage (19.4%).
