Jhoan Duran Earns First Save Of Season Monday
3 years agoMinnesota Twins relief pitcher Jhoan Duran picked up his first save of the season in Monday's 2-1 win over the Orioles. Duran entered the game in the ninth inning up a run and delivered a 1-2-3 inning with a strikeout to end the game. Four pitchers have seen save opportunities for the Twins this season, and while Emilio Pagan has seen the most with three, he pitched the eighth inning in this game. Duran has pitched well this season, compiling a 3.00 ERA with 19 strikeouts and two walks in 12 innings pitched. It still seems like Pagan is the Twins bullpen arm to roster for fantasy managers at this time, but Duran may be worth keeping an eye on if he continues to strike hitters out.
