Jhoan Duran tossed a scoreless ninth inning to save a 2-0 Opening Day win over the Royals on Thursday. Duran struck out one and walked one in the frame.

Fantasy Impact:

Duran was throwing heat as six of his 17 pitches topped 100 MPH. The 25-year-old right-hander is expected to serve as the Twins' lead closer after he struck out 89 batters in 67 2/3 innings last season.
