2024 Fantasy Outlook
Peraza entered 2023 with a shot at a starting spot in the Yankees infield, but it was fellow rookie Anthony Volpe who won the shortstop job with a strong spring and managed to hang onto the role over the length of the campaign. That resulted in Peraza spending much of the season in Triple-A, where he performed well enough with a .268/.357/.479 slash line, 14 homers, 36 RBI and 16 stolen bases over 300 plate appearances. When he did get an opportunity with the big club, however, Peraza largely struggled, finishing with a poor .539 OPS and 26.2 percent strikeout rate over 52 games. Aside from defense and his 84th percentile sprint speed, all of the youngster's advanced metrics were well below league average, and he often appeared overmatched by big-league pitching. Peraza looked far better during his initial MLB cup of coffee in 2022, and he'll almost certainly get more opportunities in the majors next year. There's a chance he could compete for the Yankees' vacant third-base spot, but a more likely scenario has the team utilizing his positional flexibility and plugging him into a utility role.

ANALYSIS
Since coming up from the minors Aug. 14, Peraza has appeared in four games and gone 2-for-10 with a home run and two runs scored. No corresponding move for his demotion has been announced yet, though he was initially recalled to serve as a roster replacement for Jazz Chisholm (elbow), who is eligible to return from the injured list Friday.

Stat Review
How does Oswald Peraza compare to other hitters?
This section compares his stats with all batting seasons from the previous three seasons (minimum 400 plate appearances)*. The bar represents the player's percentile rank. For example, if the bar is halfway across, then the player falls into the 50th percentile for that stat and it would be considered average.
* Exit Velocity and Barrels/PA % are benchmarked against 2019 data (min 400 PA) and Hard Hit Rate is benchmarked against last season's data (min 400 PA). See here for more exit velocity/barrels stats plus an explanation of current limitations with that data set.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2021
Peraza got off to a really slow start to his first full season at Triple-A, but he slashed .311/.378/.555 with 14 home runs and a 21.4 K% over his final 53 games and was excellent (.306/.404/.429, 10.5 BB%, 15.8 K%) in small sample (57 PA) against big-league pitching to close out the year. Despite his Triple-A exploits, Peraza may not hit for significant game power in his age-22/23 season (104.6 mph max exit velocity), but his speed should play right away. He pilfered 35 bases on 40 attempts last season and has a 90th percentile sprint speed. His ability to make fairly consistent contact while playing solid defense at shortstop and second base gives him a high real-life floor, although he is likely ticketed for the bottom third of the lineup when the Yankees are at full health. The big questions are whether New York will enter the season with Peraza atop the depth chart at shortstop, and what Anthony Volpe's eventual arrival means for him. Peraza should be able to beat out Isiah Kiner-Falefa with a good spring training. From there, it would be up to him to perform well in order to stave off internal threats.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Would likely replace Donaldson
Peraza would be the likely roster replacement for the Yankees if Josh Donaldson needs to go on the injured list with his right calf issue, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Donaldson will undergo an MRI after his nagging calf injury flared up again Saturday, and it seems things are trending toward an IL stint for the veteran. Peraza had just a .535 OPS in 12 games with the Yankees earlier this season but has an .853 OPS with 12 homers and 11 steals with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre. He's traditionally a shortstop but has experience at third base and could see plenty of action there if Donaldson is indeed sidelined.
