Fantasy Impact

The young shortstop's performance was highlighted by his solo home run, which contributed significantly to the team's win. With this being just the first game of the season for Peraza, his bat has gotten off to a promising start, though the sample size is obviously minuscule. His lack of walks and a single strikeout suggest there's room for improvement in plate discipline, but the power display offers a glimpse of what Peraza could potentially bring to fantasy lineups. Given his strong start, fantasy managers should keep an eye on Peraza, especially in deeper leagues where middle infield power can be a rare commodity.
