6 years agoCincinnati Reds shortstop Jose Peraza continued his hot hitting on Saturday against the St. Louis Cardinals. Peraza went 5-for-6 with a run and two RBI in his team's 8-2 win. The young infielder has been swinging a hot bat of late, picking up 14 hits over his past eight games played. On the season, he is hitting .288 with a .720 OPS, five homers, 52 runs, 34 RBI, and 17 steals. HItting towards the top of a resurgent Reds lineup, Peraza is in line to score plenty of runs in the second half, provided he can continue to get on base frequently. He will take on Cardinals right-hander Miles Mikolas on Sunday in the final game before the All-Star break. He is entrenching himself as an everyday fantasy starter in all leagues with his excellent hitting of late.--Matt T - RotoBaller
