Athletics' Carlos Duran: Joins new organization
Rotowire
The Athletics acquired Duran from the Dodgers on Wednesday in exchange for outfielder Esteury Ruiz.
Duran spent time at three levels in the minors in 2024, accruing a 3.71 ERA, 1.58 WHIP and 73:32 K:BB In 53.1 innings spanning 19 starts. The Dodgers have ample depth in the rotation and weren't likely to have a spot available for Duran anytime soon, but the move to the Athletics should enhance his chances of reaching the majors down the road. The 23-year-old right-hander will likely slot into the rotation with the Athletics' Triple-A affiliate in Las Vegas.

Dodgers' Carlos Duran: Falters at Triple-A
Rotowire
Triple-A Oklahoma City transferred Duran to the development list Sept. 17.
Duran was promoted from Double-A Tulsa to Triple-A on Sept. 14. He gave up two runs on three walks and zero hits while striking out three in 1.1 innings in his lone Triple-A appearance and was placed on the development list a few days later. This was Duran's first season back after undergoing Tommy John surgery in 2022. He knocked some rust off at Single-A Rancho Cucamonga to start the year and then had a decent showing at Double-A in the middle of the season, logging a 3.05 ERA and 48 strikeouts in 38.1 innings across 11 starts. Duran built up to 53.1 innings in his first year back and will be eligible for the Rule 5 draft this offseason if the Dodgers don't add him to the 40-man roster.
