Scouting Report
Updated May 19, 2026
Jhoan Duran was activated from the 15-day injured list on May 5, 2026 after suffering a left oblique strain on April 18. He has made an impressive return, posting a 1.80 ERA since activation with a perfect 7-for-7 record in save opportunities. The 28-year-old Dominican closer has introduced a new split-changeup pitch to his arsenal that is proving effective. Prior to his injury, he had a 1.35 ERA with 5 saves in 7 appearances. The Phillies are being cautious with his workload, limiting back-to-back appearances as he builds back to full strength. His fastball continues to reach triple digits (100+ mph), and he has demonstrated excellent strikeout ability in his return.
