Duran is a hold — expected skill is average, the line is not

His expected wOBA is .301 against a league average of .315, and with 608 plate appearances it has long since cleared the point where it becomes reliable. His actual wOBA is .274, well below that expected mark, so the cold line is a gap between contact quality and results, not a hole in his skill. The contact quality sits right at league: 89.6 mph average exit velocity, a 39.9% hard-hit rate against 40.0%, and 9.1% barrels. What drags the profile is discipline — a 27.1% strikeout rate, a 17.1% swinging-strike rate, and a 34.4% chase rate all well above league. His expected wOBA has been stepping down across the sample, which is the wrong direction. There is no overpowering skill to buy and no clear collapse to sell. Hold.
