Duran's newly negotiated contract includes a significant club option for 2026, potentially leading to a $12 million payout, greatly enhancing his commitment to the Red Sox.
The agreement came after both parties initially struggled to reach terms, with Duran's base salary set at $3.75 million and multiple incentives ensuring he can reach his goal.
Manager Alex Cora may limit Duran's game appearances, but given his past performance, achieving over 500 plate appearances, necessary for incentives, seems feasible.
The 2026 season's incentive structure is ambitious, offering Duran up to $12 million based on his MVP performance, reflecting the team's investment in his potential.
