  Rotowire Mar 29, 2026

  Peraza is not in the lineup for Sunday's game against the Astros, Matt Kawahara of the Houston Chronicle reports. Peraza has opened the season as the Angels' primary second baseman, and he's gone 4-for-11 with a homer while starting the first three games of the year. Adam Frazier will pick up a start at the keystone Sunday to close out the series in Houston.

• Angels' Oswald Peraza: Draws start at second base

  Rotowire Mar 26, 2026

  Peraza will start at second base and bat ninth in Thursday's opener against the Astros. The right-handed-hitting Peraza will get the first crack at the keystone even as the Astros send righty Hunter Brown to the mound. Lefty bat Adam Frazier will also see reps at second base, but it seems he's behind Peraza in the early pecking order.

• Angels' Oswald Peraza: In mix for starts at keystone

  Rotowire Mar 17, 2026

  Peraza is in contention for starts at second base early in the season, Rhett Bollinger of MLB.com reports. Christian Moore and Kyren Paris were optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday, and the Angels have yet to decide who will be their primary option at second base. Left-handed-batting Adam Frazier may have the upper hand, but manager Kurt Suzuki emphasized Monday that the team hasn't yet settled on a starter, saying the competition "might come down to the wire." Suzuki also stated that the Angels may opt to go with a modified platoon based on matchups, and Peraza could very well be part of that mix along with Frazier and Vaughn Grissom (hand). Peraza is out of minor-league options and has had a great spring, slashing .341/.386/.634 with two homers, six doubles, eight RBI and five stolen bases.

• Angels' Oswald Peraza: Shining in spring play

  Rotowire Mar 9, 2026

  Peraza went 3-for-4 with a solo home run, a double and two stolen bases Sunday in a Cactus League loss to the Athletics. Peraza's big game boosted his spring slash line to .320/.370/.720. He ranks second on the Angels in both homers (two) and RBI (seven) while tying for second in steals (four). Peraza is out of minor-league options and is expected to break camp with the Angels as a utility infielder, but he could feasibly move into a larger role if Christian Moore struggles to begin the campaign.

• Angels' Oswald Peraza: Homers off bench in loss

  Rotowire Sep 14, 2025

  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.

• Angels' Oswald Peraza: Losing out on everyday role

  Rotowire Sep 14, 2025

  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 Sep 11, 2025

  Peraza isn't in the lineup for Thursday's game versus the Mariners, Jeff Fletcher of The Orange County Register reports. Peraza will receive a day to recollect himself Thursday after beginning September with a .572 OPS through 10 games. His absence will open a spot in the lineup for Logan Davidson to step in as Los Angeles' first baseman and bat eighth.

• Angels' Oswald Peraza: Hitting stride at plate

  Rotowire Sep 3, 2025

  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 Jul 31, 2025

  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: Out of Sunday's lineup

  Rotowire Jul 20, 2025

  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.

• Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Idle Thursday

  Rotowire Jul 10, 2025

• Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Settling in at third base

  Rotowire Jul 9, 2025

  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 Jun 4, 2025

  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: Goes deep in win

  Rotowire May 28, 2025

  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 May 11, 2025

  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: Could be nearing end in New York

  Rotowire Mar 25, 2025

  Peraza appears to have been surpassed by Pablo Reyes on the Yankees' depth chart and is on the outside looking in for an Opening Day roster spot, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports. Early in spring, Peraza was viewed as a candidate to start at third base due to DJ LeMahieu (calf) being set to miss the beginning of the campaign. However, Oswaldo Cabrera has likely locked up that role with a solid exhibition slate while Peraza has slashed just .167/.273/.188. Even more detrimental for Peraza's outlook is that Reyes has had an outstanding spring with a .326/.434/.488 slash line and is also capable of playing more positions on the field. Peraza is out of minor-league options, so if he doesn't make the Yankees' Opening Day roster, the team would need to designate him for assignment.

• Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Homers in season debut

  Rotowire Aug 16, 2024

  Peraza went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Friday's 3-0 win over the Tigers. Making his first start in the majors this year, Peraza extended New York's lead to 2-0 in the fifth inning with a solo shot off Brant Hurter. The 24-year-old slashed just .191/.267/.272 with two homers in 52 games with the Yankees last season, though he'd been swinging the bat well in Triple-A prior to his call-up, batting .291 with a 1.063 OPS and six homers in his last 15 contests. With Jazz Chisholm (elbow) sidelined, Peraza should see some playing time at third base down the stretch.

• Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Summoned to majors

  Rotowire Aug 14, 2024

  The Yankees recalled Peraza from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday. Peraza will join the 26-man active roster as a replacement for Jazz Chisholm (elbow), who was placed on the injured list. The 24-year-old Peraza has slashed .244/.351/.382 with eight home runs and 17 steals across 65 contests with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season. He may see some starts at third base while Chisholm is out, but Peraza could struggle to see consistent playing time.

• Yankees' Oswald Peraza: Returned to Triple-A

  Rotowire Jun 23, 2024

  Peraza was optioned back to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre following Sunday's 3-1 loss to Atlanta. Peraza was called up to replace Giancarlo Stanton (hamstring) on the major-league roster after Stanton was placed on the 10-day injured list Sunday, but Peraza failed to appear in the team's contest against Atlanta before being returned to Triple-A. With Stanton expected to miss approximately four weeks with a left hamstring strain, it's possible that Peraza makes multiple trips between the big leagues and Scranton/Wilkes-Barre over that time frame.
