Duran should help bolster a Phillies bullpen that entered Wednesday with a 4.33 ERA, which ranked 24th among MLB teams, but that also added veteran David Robertson earlier this month.

The Twins traded their hard-throwing closer in the midst of what is potentially the best season of his career on Wednesday evening to the Philadelphia Phillies. In return, they landed catching prospect Eduardo Tait and right-handed pitcher Mick Abel.

Duran thought his electric entrance was too good to leave behind. The Twins agreed. After trading him, they helped the Phillies recreate it.
