Eury Perez allowed four runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out six batters in Saturday's 6-2 loss to the San Francisco Giants.
Fantasy Impact
Perez was unable to follow up his best start of the year last Sunday against the Milwaukee Brewers, in which he allowed no earned runs over six innings, with another strong performance. He struggled on Saturday, tying a season high with seven hits and four earned runs allowed. Perez entered the season with a lot of hype and has had an up-and-down start, but fantasy managers should remain patient given his considerable strikeout upside. He owns a 4.60 ERA and 1.40 WHIP with 33 strikeouts across 31.1 innings in six starts and is scheduled to take the mound again on Friday against the Philadelphia Phillies.
Eury Perez allowed no earned runs on three hits and one walk while striking out seven over six innings in Sunday's 5-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers.
Fantasy Impact
Perez was spectacular on Sunday, recording 1-2-3 innings in the first, third and fourth while facing no more than four batters in any inning. His command was on full display, as he threw 58 of his 84 pitches for strikes. He owns a 4.15 ERA and 1.35 WHIP through five starts and will look to provide the Miami Marlins with another strong outing in his next scheduled start on Saturday against the San Francisco Giants.
Eury Perez allowed three earned runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out two over four innings in Monday's 10-4 win over the Atlanta Braves.
Fantasy Impact
Perez opened the game strong with 1-2-3 innings in both the first and second. He worked around a leadoff double and a walk in the third, but ran into trouble in the fourth, allowing five hits and three earned runs. He then began the fifth with a single and a walk before Andrew Nardi came on in relief. Although his fastball velocity is up, averaging 98.2 mph, the struggles persist, as Perez owns a 5.40 ERA, 5.74 FIP and 1.55 WHIP through four starts. Fantasy managers have reason for concern following Monday’s outing, and his next scheduled start will not get any easier with a matchup against the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday, a team that owns a .355 wOBA (fifth in MLB) against right-handed pitching this season.
Eury Perez allowed four runs (two earned) on six hits and two walks while striking out six over five innings in Wednesday’s 7-4 win over the Cincinnati Reds.
Fantasy Impact
Perez allowed two runs in the first inning due to a Graham Pauley error at third base, but settled in, tossing scoreless innings two through four before giving up a home run to Sal Stewart in the fifth. Wednesday’s performance was a solid bounce-back after his four-run, six-walk outing against the New York Yankees on April 3. Perez now owns a 5.06 ERA and 1.38 WHIP through three starts and will look to deliver another solid outing in his next scheduled start on Monday against the Atlanta Braves.
Eury Perez allowed four earned runs on two hits and six walks while striking out four over four innings in Friday’s 8-2 loss to the New York Yankees.
Fantasy Impact
Perez’s fastball touched 100.2 mph and generated 11 swings and misses. The problem on Friday was his command, as he issued six walks over four innings. Perez acknowledged after the game that the cold, cloudy 58-degree conditions affected him. He’ll look to bounce back for fantasy managers in his next start, a home outing on Wednesday against the Cincinnati Reds, where he can expect much more favorable weather.
