PROSPECT: Oswald Peraza, SS, New York Yankees
ANALYSIS: While his Major League stint earlier this season was quite underwhelming, Oswald Peraza has been tearing it up in Triple-A since his demotion two weeks ago. In 50 plate appearances, Peraza is slashing .362/.400/.787 with six home runs, a steal, and only striking out 14% of the time.
Meanwhile, Anthony Volpe is hitting .198 in the Majors including .180 in the month of May.
VERDICT: Granted, Volpe does have seven home runs and 13 steals overall, but if he continues to hit below .200 and Peraza continues to hit well in Triple-A, it's not inconceivable to think that the Yankees could make the swap over the next few weeks.
