  Duran went 2-for-2 with a walk, two home runs, four RBI and a third run scored in Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Twins.

The outfielder will soon depart spring training to participate in the World Baseball Classic for Team Mexico.

• Red Sox's Jarren Duran: Could sit against left-handers

  Rotowire Feb 9, 2026

  Duran might not start against left-handed pitchers this season, Chris Cotillo of MassLive.com speculates. The Red Sox haven't been able to trade from their glut of outfielders this offseason and appear motivated to give Wilyer Abreu an opportunity to play every day, which means Duran could get squeezed out of an everyday role. The left-handed-hitting Duran slashed only .211/.260/.340 over 209 regular-season plate appearances against southpaw hurlers in 2025.

  Rotowire Nov 4, 2025

  The Red Sox and Duran avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $7.7 million contract Tuesday, Christopher Smith of MassLive.com reports. The team had an $8 million option on Duran, but it will give him a $100,000 buyout instead and bring him back at a slightly lower salary than what the option would have paid him. Duran will remain under club control through the end of the 2028 season. The 29-year-old outfielder slashed .256/.332/.442 with 16 home runs and 24 stolen bases across 157 regular-season contests for Boston in 2025.
