6 years agoCincinnati Reds shortstop Jose Peraza went 3-for-5 with a double and a run scored in his team's 9-1 win over the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday. Peraza has been performing well as the Reds' leadoff batter and is hitting .279 with a .705 OPS, five homers, 51 runs, 32 RBI, and 17 steals overall. Over the past month, Peraza is hitting .308 with eight steals, cementing himself as a viable fantasy option across all formats. While he won't provide much pop, he is a strong contributor in runs and steals with a solid batting average. He will look to stay hot against Cardinals starter Jack Flaherty on Saturday. Peraza has two hits in two at-bats against Flaherty this season.--Matt T - RotoBaller
