Jhoan Duran clinches save in tight Twins victory
by Chris Schommer | Twins Correspondent | Sat, Aug 31st 8:47am EDT
Jhoan Duran secured his 19th save of the season, allowing one hit in a scoreless inning as the Twins edged out the Blue Jays 2-0 on Friday.
Fantasy Impact:
Despite not recording any strikeouts in this outing, Duran's performance was effective enough to preserve the win. His season ERA now sits at 3.68 with a WHIP of 1.16, maintaining his role as a reliable closer for fantasy teams. Given his solid strikeout rate of 10.0 K/9 and a decent FIP of 3.30, Duran should continue to be a valuable asset in leagues, especially in save situations. However, his lack of strikeouts in recent appearances might be a slight concern for fantasy managers relying on him for those extra points.
