Boston Red Sox All-Star outfielder Jarren Duran has made MLB history, and in his unique fashion, he did it as fast as possible.
Duran has become the fourth player since 1900 to record more than 38 doubles, 13 triples, 17 home runs, 31 stolen bases, and an OPS of over .850. As mentioned earlier, Duran was the fastest to do it, getting to the record in 125 games.
Duran has been great all year, with a batting average of .293, 17 homers, 39 doubles, 13 triples, 32 stolen bases, and an OPS of .867. Duran was also this year's All-Star Game MVP, cracking a homer to win the game for the American League.
Duran is one of and will be a core piece of the Sox’s roster, and if they know what’s good for them, they will extend him a long-term contract soon.
