Player Notes
| Peralta has spent his entire seven-year career in the Cincinnati system yet this year marked his Triple-A debut, and he made the most of it. He’s switched roles back and forth between starting and relief a few times over the years. In 2015 at Pensacola as a starter he was 7-7 with a 5.09 ERA, striking out 80 while walking 60 in 117 innings, but he lowered his season ERA in half in his move back to relief this past season. |
