Duran and Chourio in the OF every day! That might be a good plan.
I'm assuming it would then be Duran, Chourio and Frelick as our every day starters, freeing up a possible Isaac Collins trade?
Issue then is, who plays CF? Duran played primarily in LF in 2025.
Duran's numbers weren't that great this past season. In fact, his stat line was down in almost every category.
Worse in hits, homers, doubles, runs, stolen bases, OBP, OPS, and slugging. Batting average took a major hit down to .256 from .285 the year before. Also, he struck out more with fewer at bats than 2024. 2025 he struck out 27%, 2024 he struck out 23%. Is he trending down? Is this a good time to try and nab him, thinking 2025 was just a blip?
Be nice to get a guy in the OF that has 30 HR potential, and I don't think Duran is that guy hitting only 16 in 2025.
