Jarren Duran Reacts to Big Red Sox Extension News originally appeared on Athlon Sports. The expectations entering the 2025 season weren't all too high for the Boston Red Sox, but they've certainly impressed, sporting a 64-51 record, which puts them in second place in the AL East behind the Toronto Blue Jays.

"Jarren Duran is an interesting case. He turns 29 in September and can't become a free agent until after the 2028 season. He's also a player whose game is built around speed," Abraham wrote. "Projecting what kind of player Duran will be when he's 32 or 33 is difficult."

After the Red Sox's 8-5 win, Duran spoke on camera about the trade deadline for the first time in an on-field interview with NESN's Tom Caron. Caron asked him what his message would be to the fans who were happy to see him stick around.
