Red Sox's 2026 arbitration figures hint at likely trade for costly outfielder

Nine Boston Red Sox players will enter arbitration this offseason, one of them being outfielder Jarren Duran.

Duran will enter his second year of arbitration in just a few months, and his first wasn't easy for Boston's front office. Duran and his representation filed at $4 million, while the Red Sox filed at $3.5 million. The two sides could not settle by the deadline, which could have sent them to a hearing if they hadn't agreed to a contract price before the hearing date.

Weeks before the arbitration hearings were scheduled to take place, Boston and Duran settled on a one-year, $3.
