Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Homers in victory
Rotowire
Duran went 1-for-3 with a solo home run, two walks and three runs scored during Monday's 13-6 win over the Reds.
Duran hit his second home run in June, and sixth on the season, to help pad the Red Sox lead after Cincinnati cut it down to three. He might have capped the month off well, but the 28-year-old has struggled at the plate in June, slashing .206/.287/.371 with season lows across the board for a single month this season. His .723 OPS for the season remains far off of his .834 mark in last year's All-Star campaign.

Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Ejected Sunday
Rotowire
Duran was ejected from Sunday's game against the Giants in the top of the eighth inning, Ian Browne of MLB.com reports.
Duran ripped a line drive to right field to open the top of the eighth, ultimately being thrown out at second base while trying to stretch a single into a double. The outfielder argued with the umpire after the play and was tossed thereafter. Duran finished his day 1-for-4 at the plate, and he'll look to reset ahead of Monday's series opener against the Angels.

Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Logs steal Friday
Rotowire
Duran went 2-for-5 with a stolen base and a run scored in Friday's 7-5 win over the Giants.
This was Duran's first multi-hit game since June 3 versus the Angels. He had been held hitless in five of his previous six games, going 1-for-19 with a triple and seven strikeouts in that span. The outfielder has been a little streaky at the plate this year but still has a .260/.313/.412 slash line over 76 contests. He's added five home runs, 15 steals, 38 RBI, 40 runs scored, 18 doubles and eight triples.
Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Lower in order against lefties
Rotowire
Red Sox manager Alex Cora will move Duran to the middle of the order against left-handers, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com reports.
Aside from the days he's been out of the lineup, Duran has led off all season long. That changed Saturday, when Cora shifted him to fifth against Carlos Rodon. He's batting sixth Sunday against Max Fried, per Cotillo. Duran sports a .245 average and .628 OPS against southpaws, which may partially explain Cora's motivation for the shift. The manager also said the move is about getting more plate appearances for both Refsnyder and Romy Gonzalez, who's batting third for a second straight game Sunday.

Rotowire
Duran went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-3 win over the Rays.
It was the fifth round tripper of the campaign by Duran, who last homered back on May 24. Although the speedy outfielder has taken a bit of a step back in the power department so far -- he's slugging .428 this year after slugging .492 in 2024 -- he's been plenty productive despite the decrease in pop. Duran is batting .271 with 18 doubles, seven triples, 38 RBI, 38 runs scored and 14 stolen bases through 299 at-bats, and he's tied for the American League lead in three-baggers.

Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Goes deep in twin bill
Rotowire
Duran went a combined 2-for-8 with a solo home run and a walk across Saturday's doubleheader split versus Baltimore.
Duran led off Boston's half of the first inning in Game 1 with a solo blast to right-center field. He reached twice more in that contest before going 0-for-4 in the low-scoring nightcap. By failing to get aboard in Game 2, Duran's stretch of reaching base in 10 straight contests came to an end. He had batted .366 with a pair of homers and 12 RBI during the hot streak, and his season slash line now sits at .268/.319/.425 with four long balls, 33 RBI, 30 runs and 12 stolen bases through 248 plate appearances.

Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Plates four runs in victory

Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Triples, swipes bag in two-hit game
Rotowire
Duran went 2-for-3 with a triple, a walk and a stolen base in Friday's 4-2 loss to Atlanta.
Duran legged out his American League-leading fifth triple, tallying his 15th multi-hit game of the year as well. The 28-year-old outfielder has been quite productive despite a lack of power over his last 23 outings (102 at-bats), during which he's batting .284 with six doubles, 12 RBI, 14 runs scored and six stolen bases. As long as he's consistently leading off for the Red Sox, Duran should have plenty of run-scoring upside going forward.
