3 years agoMiami Marlins starting pitching prospect Eury Perez was dominant on April 29. Through five innings of work, he was responsible for a whopping 12 strikeouts, just one hit, and zero walks. It was a clutch performance after he had allowed 12 runs over 12 innings to open the season. Although one strong start isn't enough to reverse his earlier woes, last Thursday's dominant effort shows that he has what it takes to deliver high-quality outings. Perez ranks fourth among MLB Pipeline's top Marlins prospects. The right-hander signed an international contract in 2019 and spent last season between Single- and High-A. The 19-year-old boasts a mid-90s fastball that tops out at 98 mph, as well as a deceiving mid-80s changeup and a mid-70s fastball that he consistently locates in the strike zone.--Andersen Pickard - RotoBaller
