Perez picked up a win Friday, improving his record to 4-3 for the year alongside a nice 3.02 ERA and 1.06 WHIP. He survived a three-run third inning, sandwiching it between four scoreless frames, and the Braves' offense was able to bail Perez out. He should return to the mound Thursday against the White Sox.

Fantasy Impact

After making his previous two appearances out of the Braves' bullpen, Perez started for the first time in nearly two weeks on Tuesday. The veteran southpaw might have been shaking a bit of rust off in a three-run first frame, but he locked in over the following four innings, surrendering just one additional run and keeping the Braves in the game. The 10 punchouts marked a new career high for Perez, and he only needed 78 pitches to accomplish the feat. The 35-year-old is now sporting a 2.85 ERA and 1.00 WHIP through 10 games (six starts) on the season.
