Martin Perez (TEX, SP) - Waiver Wire Analysis

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues / Stream Worthy

OWNED IN: 3% of Fleaflicker Leagues

ANALYSIS: Many fantasy owners may have forgotten about Martin Perez after his Tommy-John Surgery in 2014, but with pickings so slim it's worth putting him back on your radars.

Only 24, Perez has bounced back nicely after a horrendous outing vs NYY (1 IP, 8 ER) by compiling a 2.21 ERA over 20.1 innings (3 GS). Those matchups don't look intimidating on paper (TB, @ SEA, SF) but Tampa has actually been one of the best teams vs LHP according to RotoGrinders. Safe to say his 5.29 ERA on the season is very misleading. One peek at his 2.99 FIP and 3.81 SIERA imply he's getting a little unlucky, along with the .345 BABIP.

His fastball is back to around 92 mph while his sinker has been his best pitch in 2015. His sinker has limited hitters to a .133 AVG in 6 GS. He's not missing many bats (6.1 SwStk%) and he's yet to surrender a HR in 2015. Easy to say some regression is coming in the form of the longball.

He's got a matchup at home vs Seattle, a team who is last in the AL in AVG, OBP, and OPS vs LHP. He's got my stamp of approval for streamers. As for his next outing vs Toronto, tread at your own risk. The HRs should be aplenty.
