Boston Red Sox outfielder Jarren Duran is in the starting lineup for Friday afternoon's series opener against right-hander Adrian Sampson and the Chicago Cubs.
The Red Sox activated Duran from the restricted list Thursday after he was unavailable for the club's series in Toronto against the Blue Jays due to his vaccination status. He is starting in center field on Friday and batting leadoff. The Red Sox optioned infielder Yolmer Sanchez back to Triple-A in a corresponding roster move.
numberFire’s models project Duran for 12.7 FanDuel points on Friday, and he has a $2,900 salary. Per our MLB Heat Map, the Red Sox’s implied total (4.48) is 12th in the majors on Friday.
