BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues
ROSTERED IN: 60% of leagues
ANALYSIS:
Just a quick disclaimer here since Perez is already above the 50% threshold we use for this piece. Despite the lackluster box score result, Perez looked awesome Friday night with an 18% SwStr% and just electrifying stuff.
A really great four-seamer plus an awesome slider and curveball, this kid is going to be something. As with all rookies, we should have some hesitation on being overly confident that he'll succeed against the world's best hitters right away, but he certainly has the talent and the pitch mix to do it. He should be universally rostered right now.
