Steve PerraultHOST
I don't, I still don't know why, what was he doing? What was Durbin doing? Why, why is he trying to steal?
Jared CarrabisHOST
I think he just wanted to give them a chance and probably didn't believe that Duran was gonna get a hit, but maybe he'll put the ball in play and I can score.
Steve PerraultHOST
Yeah.
Jared CarrabisHOST
And to be fair-
Jared CarrabisHOST
With runners in scoring position, they blow.
Steve PerraultHOST
Yeah.
Coley MickHOST
Was he hoping, like, the throw to third was so bad he'd score on that? 'Cause even if he doesn't think Duran's gonna get a hit, like, being on third doesn't matter there.
Jared CarrabisHOST
Well, it was less than two outs-
Derek Van RiperHOST
Uh, the Morrow brothers have a question for us.
Derek Van RiperHOST
Mark Morrow writes: "How do you handle the player you can't quite get right? For us this year, it's been Jarren Duran.
Derek Van RiperHOST
When we bench him, he does well.
Derek Van RiperHOST
When we play him, he doesn't.
Derek Van RiperHOST
In my mind, and I don't know if this is validated by data, it seems like guys that have shaky command are that type of pitcher, where they go out and they, they blow up against a bad lineup, and then their command is good against a good lineup, and they're great.
Derek Van RiperHOST
And you sat 'em for the tough matchup, and they were good, and you played 'em in the easy matchup, and they were all over the place and just destroyed themselves, right? Like, that's the archetype of the player that I fear being wrong about the most.
Derek Van RiperHOST
But did you have anyone like this, uh, like, like a Jarren Duran on your rosters this year where you were constantly off?
Eno SarrisHOST
Yeah, I c- I can't think of one.
Todd ZolaHOST
Which tells you how highly I think of him if I think that's an off year.
Todd ZolaHOST
It's kind of like a mini Duran Duran, right? Hitting 200, but contributing elsewhere.
Clay LinkHOST
And one of my two head-to-head championship matchups I have...
Clay LinkHOST
Swanson on the IL, and Joshua Baez is day-to-day.
Tony MassarottiHOST
Okay, Sean.
Tony MassarottiHOST
And since you brought up, uh, uh, uh, Jones, if the lefties for New York are gonna pitch games two and three, and, and presumably they are, you, you're raising a scenario in which Jarren Duran could literally be on the bench for all three games.
Tony MassarottiHOST
How is he gonna handle that?
Sean McAdamGUEST
Um, I, I think he's a guy that is going to be disappointed.
Tony MassarottiHOST
It's possible, but uh, unlikely, I would say, at this point.
Tony MassarottiHOST
If it does change, we'll change with it.
Tony MassarottiHOST
But, um, there's gonna be a lot to talk about there, and Sean McAdam just said, basically, Jarren Duran's gonna get squeezed out by Mickey Gaspar, or so he thinks.
Tony MassarottiHOST
And, uh, and if they play a left-handed starter in that series, Jamai Jones is gonna get, uh, the DH role, Anthony's gonna play left field, and that comes with some concern, because Anthony doesn't cover the ground the same way that Jarren Duran was or does.
Tony MassarottiHOST
Uh, and when I say n- on pitches 97 or more.
Tony MassarottiHOST
So if you're facing Cam Schlittler, you have to decide three guys for two spots, Gasper, Roman Anthony, and Jarren Duran.
Tony MassarottiHOST
How do you do it?
Matt McCarthyHOST
This one's easy for me.
Matt McCarthyHOST
He's my DH, and Roman Anthony's in left field.
Matt McCarthyHOST
Am I afraid to put him in left field at Yankee Stadium? You bet.
Matt McCarthyHOST
You know who I'm also afraid to put in left field at Yankee Stadium? Jarren Duran.
Matt McCarthyHOST
I think either way, your left fielder is not gonna be good defensively.
Tony MassarottiHOST
They have some shortcomings, they have some inexperience issues with certain key players, but they are for the most part, at least on the offensive side, what I would call a max effort team.
Tony MassarottiHOST
Guys like Seager, Sogard, Durbin, even Jarren Duran is a high effort player.
Tony MassarottiHOST
Seddon Rafael I think has to be a high effort player to succeed.
Tony MassarottiHOST
All of these guys are gonna, uh, during the regular season they can probably be productive because the competition isn't as good, and even the good players kind of pace themselves a little bit on the opposition, uh, when you have a good team.
Lorenzo deMaliaGUEST
Like, in the o- like, Tully didn't have the best numbers last year, but this year it's like, okay, when you're doing all that and you're also throwing an immaculate inning and striking everybody out, it's like, okay, now this guy is awesome.
Jake StorielliHOST
In a big at bat, would you rather see Trevor Story or Jarren Duran?
Lorenzo deMaliaGUEST
That's a mean question.
Lorenzo deMaliaGUEST
Um-
Frank StampflHOST
... like top three or four round player early on in his career, so.
Chris TowersHOST
I mean, how about like a Jarren Duran?
Frank StampflHOST
Yeah.
Chris TowersHOST
You know, that, that might be a little m- like, I think Duran's a little more physical, like he hits the ball a little harder, but his career high in homers is in the 20s, right? It's not like he's...
Chris TowersHOST
That's a high-end outcome.
Chris TowersHOST
That's asking a lot to, you know, hit 285 and score 111.
Chris TowersHOST
Like, I don't think he's gonna do that, but, you know, a, a poor man's Jarren Duran.
Frank StampflHOST
Yeah.
Tony MassarottiHOST
Mm-hmm.
Jared CarrabisGUEST
Um, Duran, I'm not really looking...
Jared CarrabisGUEST
Well, so the other thing, too, Tony, is, is gonna be interesting i- in terms of the offense is I think when they were the third-best offense, you were talking about Andrew Monasterio being your everyday shortstop.
Tony MassarottiHOST
Correct.
Jeff WilsonHOST
A lot of left-handed hitters.
Jeff WilsonHOST
Well, I don't know about a lot, but, uh, Jarren Duran, Duran, Duran, and, uh, uh, Anthony off the top of my head are definitely left-handed batters.
Jeff WilsonHOST
So, uh, you know, Trevor Story's healthy from Irving.
Jeff WilsonHOST
Uh, he's probably, you know, you gotta consider him as a threat.
