Eury Perez a Potential Buy-Low Candidate Amid Slow Start?
Through his first 26 innings pitched (five starts) of 2026, Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez has recorded a 2-1 record with a 4.15 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, and 27 strikeouts. The 23-year-old has struggled with command in the early going of the season, as his walk rate currently sits at a career-worst 10.7%. Perez's strikeout rate is also down from 27.3% to 24.1%. However, the young right-hander's average fastball velocity is up from 97.8 mph to 98.2 mph, which is a good sign that there hasn't been any degradation in his stuff. Perez has been victimized so far this season by an unusually low 65.9% strand rate. If he can be a bit more effective at navigating traffic throughout the remainder of the year, Perez's ERA could gradually decrease. Perez remains a highly talented young arm with plenty of upside and could be an appealing buy-low candidate for fantasy managers after his slow start to 2026.
