Peraza went 1-for-1 with a solo home run and a walk in Sunday's 11-2 loss to the Mariners.
Peraza hit his fifth homer of the season and his second as an Angel after coming into the game as a defensive replacement for Yoan Moncada (ankle). If Moncada misses additional time, Peraza could be a candidate to gain playing time at third base moving forward, though he'll have to compete with Luis Rengifo and Chris Taylor. Peraza is slashing a paltry .173/.234/.268 with 19 RBI, 23 runs scored and six stolen bases over 239 plate appearances between the Angels and the Yankees this season.

Rotowire
Peraza is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.
Peraza will take a seat for the second day in a row and for the third time in four games. Though Peraza had earned regular starts at first base to begin the month, he appears to have since been supplanted by Logan Davidson as the Angels' top option at the position.

Angels' Oswald Peraza: Getting rest Thursday
Rotowire
Peraza isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports.

Angels' Oswald Peraza: Staking claim to everyday role
Rotowire
Peraza will start at shortstop and bat sixth in Sunday's game against the Athletics.
Though he'll be covering shortstop Sunday while Zach Neto gets a rare day of rest, Peraza appears to have emerged as the Angels' everyday first baseman in the continued absence of Nolan Schanuel (wrist). Peraza occupied first base in six of the Angels' previous seven contests, going 7-for-25 (.280 average) with one home run, one double, two walks, three stolen bases, three RBI and two runs during that stretch.

Angels' Oswald Peraza: Hitting stride at plate
Rotowire
Peraza went 2-for-4 with an RBI double, a run scored and a stolen base during Tuesday's 5-1 win over the Royals.
Peraza has struggled mightily at the plate this season, slashing .152/.212/.241 in 170 plate appearances with the Yankees before being traded to the Halos. The versatile infielder started his time in Los Angeles going 2-for-18, but he's begun to turn it around. In his last four games, Peraza is 5-for-13 (.385) with a home run, two stolen bases and four total RBI.

Angels' Oswald Peraza: Traded to Halos
Rotowire
The Yankees traded Peraza to the Angels on Thursday, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
In exchange for Peraza, the Yankees received Wilberson De Pena and international bonus money from the Angels, per Joel Sherman of the New York Post. Peraza lost playing time with the Yankees after New York acquired Ryan McMahon but should find some playing time with a struggling Angels team.
Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Losing time after McMahon trade
Rotowire
Peraza is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.
Peraza will hit the bench for the third game in a row and will likely see limited use in a utility role for the foreseeable future after the Yankees addressed their need for an everyday third baseman by acquiring Ryan McMahon from the Rockies over the weekend. Before McMahon's arrival, Peraza had been serving as New York's primary option at the hot corner, but the 25-year-old has slashed just .152/.212/.241 over 170 plate appearances with the Yankees on the season and doesn't look ready for extended playing time in the majors.

Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Out of Sunday's lineup
Rotowire
Peraza is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against Atlanta.
Peraza has been operating as the Yankees' primary third baseman over the past couple weeks, but he hasn't taken advantage of the opportunity and has gone 3-for-29 with nine strikeouts so far in July. Jorbit Vivas is manning the hot corner for the series finale in Atlanta.
Peraza isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Mariners.
Peraza will give way to Jorbit Vivas at the hot corner Thursday after going 1-for-8 with an RBI, a run and two strikeouts over the first two games of the series.

Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Settling in at third base
Rotowire
Peraza will start at third base and bat ninth in Wednesday's game against the Mariners.
Peraza will pick up his fourth consecutive start and his third straight at the hot corner, where he looks to be the Yankees' new top option after Jazz Chisholm was moved back to second base earlier this week. Since the Yankees aren't comfortable playing the 36-year-old DJ LeMahieu at the hot corner at this stage of his career, Peraza doesn't face any obvious threats for his starting gig, but it wouldn't be surprising if the team pursued an upgrade at the position prior to the July 31 trade deadline. Peraza has been a well-below-average hitter over his 146 plate appearances in the majors this season, slashing just .157/.226/.261 with three home runs and a 28.8 percent strikeout rate.

Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Shifts back to reserve role
Rotowire
Peraza is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Guardians.
After drawing seven starts in the Yankees' previous eight games, Peraza has now been left out of the lineup for both of the first two contests of the series versus the Guardians. Peraza's move to the bench was fully expected, as Jazz Chisholm (oblique) returned from the injured list Wednesday and should serve as the team's primary third baseman moving forward. Playing time could eventually open up for Peraza at second base, however, if DJ LeMahieu (.642 OPS in 54 plate appearances) continues to provide a limited impact at the dish.

Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Getting regular run at third base
Rotowire
Peraza will start at third base and bat ninth in Sunday's game against the Dodgers.
Peraza will make his seventh start in eight games at third base and appears to have moved ahead of Jorbit Vivas on the depth chart, but both players are likely to see their playing time decrease in the near future. Jazz Chisholm (oblique) has been playing third base during his rehab assignment and is expected to be activated from the injured list Tuesday, at which time he should take over as the Yankees' everyday option at the position. Once Chisholm is back in the fold, Peraza and Vivas will have to vie with DJ LeMahieu for starts at second base.
Peraza went 1-for-3 with a solo home run and walk in Tuesday's 3-2 victory over the Angels.
The utilityman crushed a line-drive homer to center field off Hector Neris in the seventh inning, providing a key insurance run that helped secure the win. It's been tough sledding for the 24-year-old, who's slashing just .203/.283/.322 with eight extra-base hits over 79 at-bats this season. The injury to third baseman Oswaldo Cabrera on May 12 opened up more playing time for Peraza, but he hasn't capitalized on the opportunity. Tuesday's home run was a positive sign, but the Yankees will likely continue exploring both internal and external options to maximize production at the hot corner.

Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Swats homer Saturday
Rotowire
Peraza went 1-for-3 with a two-run home run in Saturday's loss to the Athletics.
Peraza started at third base and belted a two-run shot to left field in the sixth inning to give the Yankees a short-lived lead. He moved over to second base in the sixth frame and was then pinch hit for in the eighth despite the earlier long ball. Peraza hasn't been able to do much in his limited playing time this season, slashing .205/.271/.386 with two homers and seven RBI over 48 plate appearances. Saturday marked his lone start in the Yankees' past four games.

Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Contributes as substitute
Rotowire
Peraza went 2-for-5 with one run scored and two RBI in Tuesday's 15-3 win over the Orioles.
Peraza entered Tuesday's game in the first inning for Jazz Chisholm (oblique). Peraza took advantage of the opportunity, smacking a two-run single in the fourth frame and finishing with his second multi-hit game of the season. With DJ LeMahieu (calf/hip) on the 10-day IL, Peraza would be a candidate to see his playing time increase significantly if Chisholm is sidelined for an extended period of time.

Peraza didn't start the contest, but he was given a chance to pinch hit with New York up 18-6 in the seventh inning. The 24-year-old took advantage of the opportunity, drilling a two-run blast to left field. The long ball was the Yankees' ninth of the game, establishing a franchise record.
