It feels like forever ago when Jarren Duran was an All-Star, and this year has certainly not gone the way he hoped it would.
Duran is hitting .206 with a .620 OPS in 106 games this year. He has played nearly every day thanks to the injury to Roman Anthony, but he simply has not gotten the job done. He admitted recently that he thought he was going to be released before the trade deadline due to his poor play.
Duran was a hot name in trade rumors in the offseason and at last year's deadline. Perhaps that was all weighing on him, but when the trade deadline passed, he was still on the Red Sox.
"I thought that I wasn't going to be here, which was understandable the way I've been playing," said Duran, per the Boston Globe's Alex Speier. "I'm just thankful that I have the opportunity to continue this run with this team and this organization, and hopefully make a playoff push."
