Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran went 4-for-5 with a double and three singles while hitting out of the leadoff spot against the Guardians on Saturday evening. He also contributed an RBI and stole second base on two different occasions. Boston ultimately defeated Cleveland by a score of 4-2, extending its winning streak to six games.
Fantasy Impact
Duran is now slashing .319/.373/.489 with three RBI, three walks, 11 strikeouts, and four stolen bases through 12 games this season. Not only has he established himself as a key piece on Boston's roster, but he's also competing to keep the leadoff role long-term. Duran's ability to get on base is nicely complemented by his elite speed, including a sprint speed of 29.2 feet per second (95th percentile).
