2 years agoBoston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran is starting in center field and hitting leadoff again on Thursday against Oakland Athletics right-hander Paul Blackburn. Duran was called up for the second time this year on Wednesday and was inserted into the leadoff spot, going 0-for-4 with a walk and a run scored. With Enrique Hernandez (hip) still out, Duran could see regular playing time in the short term, and he's obviously more attractive from a DFS standpoint in the leadoff spot. The 25-year-old has gone 4-for-17 (.235) with a triple in four games played for the Red Sox this year, but he has plenty of long-term upside for fantasy managers.--Keith Hernandez - RotoBaller
