Pittsburgh Pirates pitching prospect Dominic Perachi boasts a three-pitch mix, headlined by a low-90s fastball. He also deploys a low-80s slider and a loopy curveball. The left-hander has had trouble locating his breaking ball, but he can afford to have a little less control given that he's generated plenty of swings and misses on his curveball out of the zone. Batters also tend to chase at his fastball in the upper portion of the zone. Last Thursday, the southpaw went six full innings, allowing zero runs, zero walks, and just one hit. He supported his impressive shutout appearance with a career-high 11 strikeouts on the day. The jury is still out on whether Perachi will be a starter or reliever, but last week's outing confirms that he at least deserves a chance to pitch in the rotation.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBallerRead More News
