16 Sep
Summary

- Duran is batting seventh in the lineup ahead of Durbin and Sogard.
- He owns a .205 batting average across 527 at-bats this season.
The Boston Red Sox are set to face the Texas Rangers, with a lineup change announced ahead of the series opener. Outfielder Jarren Duran will start in center field and hit seventh in the batting order. This move comes as the Red Sox look to build on a recent series victory. Duran has experienced a difficult 2026 season, struggling for consistency. Despite a .205 batting average over 527 at-bats, he has contributed 65 runs and 20 home runs. His position on the team is unclear with the impending return of injured players Ceddanne Rafaela and Eli White. Unless Duran finishes the season strongly, his departure from Boston after this year is a possibility.
