Jhoan Duran Injury: Battling illness

Updated on July 9, 2025 at 3:27pm

Duran was unavailable for Tuesday's 8-1 win over the Cubs due to an illness, Dan Hayes of The Athletic reports.

The Twins sent Duran home early Tuesday to prevent him from spreading his illness to his teammates, but he'll likely be back in the bullpen within a few days. In the meantime, Minnesota could turn to Louis Varland or Griffin Jax for any save chances that may arise.
