Rebounds for 17th save
Duran secured the save Wednesday against the Blue Jays, allowing no runs on two hits and no walks in the ninth inning. He struck out one.
Analysis
After blowing his first save of the season Tuesday versus Toronto, Duran was shaky again Wednesday but managed to hold on for the save. The hard-throwing right-hander has established a strong grip as Philadelphia's closer, posting a 1.99 ERA, 1.01 WHIP and 34:5 K:BB while converting 17 of his 18 save opportunities. Duran is tied for second in the National League in saves with Riley O'Brien.

Blows first save of 2026
Duran (1-3) blew the save and took the loss in Tuesday's 3-2 loss to Toronto, allowing two runs on three hits while failing to record an out.
Analysis
Duran was brought out to close things out after the Phillies took a 2-1 lead in the top of the ninth. The right-hander had converted each of his first 16 save chances of the season, but he did not have that same success in Toronto. The game was tied at 2-2 on a wild pitch that brought Myles Straw home before Duran yielded a walk-off single to Brandon Valenzuela. This marks the first time this season that Duran has given up multiple earned runs, and he now sits at a 2.08 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 33:5 K:BB across 21.2 innings.

Secures 16th save
Duran earned a save over the Blue Jays on Monday, allowing one hit over a scoreless inning.
Analysis
Duran had a three-run lead to work with when he entered in the ninth frame and needed just nine pitches to record three outs. The fireballing right-hander notched his eighth straight scoreless outing, and he's converted all 16 of his save opportunities this season. Duran recorded a career-high 32 regular-season saves last year, and he's currently on pace to exceed that mark. His 1.25 ERA and 0.83 WHIP are also tracking toward career-best numbers.

Collects 15th save
Duran struck out two in a perfect ninth inning Friday to record his 15th save of the season in an 8-6 win over the White Sox.
Analysis
The right-hander has been almost untouchable since returning from an oblique strain in early May. Duran's allowed a run in only one of his last 13 appearances, posting a 0.69 ERA, 0.62 WHIP and 23:2 K:BB in 13 innings over that span while converting all 10 of his save chances.
