Jhonny Peralta (SS/3B, STL) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep Mixed, NL-Only Leagues

OWNED IN: 42% Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Jhonny Peralta missed the first two months of the season with a torn thumb ligament. He’s shown little rust since returning, hitting .321/.387/.536 with a homer and 11 R+RBI in his first six games. Peralta has not yet gained third base eligibility in non-Yahoo leagues, but will by the end of the week. He does have his usual eligibility at shortstop, though, and it’s not hard to see him producing top-10 value at that position over the remainder of the season.
