Sun Mar 1009:27David Peralta Will Make Cubs Spring Debut On Tuesday
Chicago Cubs non-roster invitee and outfielder David Peralta is expected to make his spring debut with his new club on Tuesday. The 36-year-old had flexor tendon surgery in the offseason and signed a minor league deal with the club. He played his first several seasons in the majors with the Diamondbacks and the last year and a half with the Dodgers. He had a somewhat productive campaign in 2023 as a part-time player, but he's a long way from his best and most fantasy-relevant season of 2018 where he had a .368 WOBA and 130 wRC+.

Mon Feb 1919:29David Peralta, Cubs Agree To Deal On Monday
Free-agent outfielder David Peralta (elbow) and the Chicago Cubs agreed to an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to sources familiar with the deal. Peralta joins the Cubs after hitting .259/.294/.381 with seven home runs, 25 doubles, a triple, 55 RBI, four stolen bases and 47 runs scored in 422 plate appearances over 133 games in 2023 for the Los Angeles Dodgers. The 36-year-old left-handed hitter had a disastrous second half of the season, though, and then had flexor-tendon surgery on his left elbow in late October. It remains to be seen if Peralta will be ready by Opening Day, but if he is, the veteran outfielder will mostly likely serve as a reserve outfielder for the Cubbies in 2024. Fantasy managers in mixed leagues shouldn't have him on their radars.

Thu Oct 26 202317:10David Peralta Undergoes Surgery On Left Arm
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta had a flexor tendon repair on his left, throwing arm on Wednesday. The injury occurred around the All-Star break. A free agent after the season, Peralta should be hitting and throwing by March. The 36-year-old isn't much of a fantasy option outside of the deepest or league-only formats at this point in his career.

Tue Oct 24 202323:21David Peralta Undergoes Surgery
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta (elbow) recently underwent surgery on his left elbow, per a story post on his Instagram account. It was a surprise operation, as Dodgers brass told reporters at their end-of-season press conference last week that there were no surgeries on the scheduled for Dodgers players. The 36-year-old veteran played in 133 games for LA in 2023, slashing .259/.294/.381 with seven home runs and 55 RBI while mostly playing left field for the Blue after signing a one-year, $6.5 million deal back in February. Scheduled to hit free agency at the conclusion of the World Series, it's unlikely that the Dodgers will be looking to re-sign the veteran left-handed hitter this winter.

Tue Sep 26 202312:44David Peralta Sitting In First Game Of Doubleheader
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta is starting on the bench on Tuesday for Game 1 of a doubleheader against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field. Enrique Hernandez is in left field and batting sixth, James Outman is manning center and is hitting seventh, and Jason Heyward is starting in right field and in the five-hole against Rockies right-hander Chase Anderson in the first game of a double dip. Peralta hasn't started in the last two games for the Dodgers as he endures a rough patch at the plate. The 36-year-old left-handed hitter has gone just 7-for-42 (.167) with no homers, four doubles, three RBI, 13 strikeouts, one steal and three runs scored in 16 games (11 starts) in September. If he doesn't pick it up in the final week of the regular season, Peralta may see his playing time suffer in the postseason.

Sat Sep 16 202310:34David Peralta Nursing Back Tightness
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta (back), who was scratched from Friday's lineup against the Seattle Mariners, is experiencing lower-back tightness. Kike Hernandez joined the lineup to defend left field in his absence. Peralta should be deemed day-to-day with his next chance to return coming on Saturday for the second game of the series. The 35-year-old longtime Arizona Diamondback is logging a career-worst .694 OPS with seven home runs, 20 doubles, 51 RBI, and four stolen bases in 351 at-bats with LA this year. Super-utility man Chris Taylor may also be asked to step up if Peralta misses additional time.

Tue Sep 12 202318:52David Peralta Back In The Lineup On Tuesday
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta (elbow) is back in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the San Diego Padres. The veteran outfielder missed Monday's game after getting hit by a pitch in the elbow during Sunday's contest. Luckily, the X-rays came back negative, so it appears Peralta avoided serious injury. He appears ready to go on Tuesday after an extra day off to rest. He'll bat sixth and play left field versus right-hander Michael Wacha on Tuesday. Fantasy managers should adjust their lineups accordingly with Peralta back.

Mon Sep 11 202321:12David Peralta Not In Monday's Lineup
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta (elbow) is not in his team's lineup for a Monday game against the San Diego Padres, but he is reportedly available to pinch-hit. Peralta left Sunday's game against the Washington Nationals after getting hit by a pitch and is apparently still feeling the effects of that on Monday. Peralta will give way to Chris Taylor, who will hit seventh. It doesn't appear that Peralta is dealing with anything serious, so expect him back in the lineup in the near future even if he doesn't make an appearance as a pinch-hitter on Monday night.

Sun Sep 10 202321:44David Peralta Avoids Serious Injury
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta (elbow) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the Washington Nationals. The left-handed slugger was removed from the game after getting hit by a pitch in the second inning. He underwent X-rays that came back negative, so fantasy managers should consider Peralta as day-to-day right now. Fantasy managers should look for an update on his status ahead of Monday's contest against the San Diego Padres.

Sun Sep 10 202316:12David Peralta Leaves With Injury
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta was removed from Sunday's game with a left elbow contusion. The injury could be minor and he should be considered day-to-day now. With 346 at-bats under his belt, Peralta has a respectable .272 batting average but doesn't offer much else for fantasy. If you're in an NL-only league, keep an eye on how long this injury could keep him out.

Sat Jun 24 202316:51David Peralta Gets Rest Day On Saturday
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta is absent from the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Houston Astros. The veteran outfielder appears to be getting a routine rest day here. The 35-year-old has been decent, slashing .265/.306/.388 with four home runs and 26 RBI in 49 games. In his absence, Jason Heyward will cover left field and bat fifth versus right-hander Ronel Blanco on Saturday. The expectation is that Peralta will return to the lineup after this game.

Sat Jun 17 202309:13Chris Taylor, David Peralta Both Forced From Friday’s Contest
Los Angeles Dodgers super utility player Chris Taylor (hamstring) and outfielder David Peralta (knee) both exited Friday's matchup with the San Francisco Giants. Taylor experienced right knee pain while Peralta suffered a left a hamstring strain, causing their respective departures early in the game. Michael Busch took over at third base for Taylor, going 0-for-4 in relief. James Outman came on for Peralta, going 2-for-4 with two RBI in the process. Peralta was quietly raking lately, hitting a robust .432 with two homers and seven RBI over his last 44 at-bats. Taylor has been playing more while filling in for the sidelined Max Muncy (hamstring) recently, but the Dodgers depth would be further extended under these desperate circumstances. Expect Los Angeles to provide an update on the injuries of the two veterans ahead of Saturday's game.

Sun May 14 202314:31David Peralta Off Again Sunday
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta is taking a seat to start Sunday's contest against Ryan Weathers and the San Diego Padres. The 35-year-old has disappointed thus far, batting .209 with a .544 OPS over 32 games. It will be Peralta's fourth time on the bench over the club's last five games, as all of them came with left-handers on the mound. Chris Taylor will take his spot in the outfield and bat sixth. The utility man is batting just .202 but has posted seven long balls with a .759 OPS, including a .902 mark off of southpaws. With the lefty Weathers on the bump, fantasy managers looking for power can use Taylor as a solid streaming option.

Mon Apr 10 202318:07David Peralta Drops To Eighth In Lineup Monday
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta will drop to eighth in the club's batting order as they take on the San Francisco Giants and right-hander Logan Webb. The lefty-swinging veteran didn't start Friday's or Saturday's contests but returned to the lineup Sunday, hitting third while doubling in a run. Despite facing another righty Monday, the 35-year-old falls all the way to eighth in the batting order. Peralta signed a one-year deal with the Dodgers this winter but has scuffled out of the gate, hitting just .174 with a .425 OPS across his first 24 trips to the plate with his new club. He is the fifth and final left-handed batter that will face Webb this evening.

Mon Feb 20 202311:11David Peralta Had Offseason Surgery
Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder David Peralta (back) needed offseason back surgery to address a herniated disc over the winter, with the pain coming "out of nowhere." It could help explain why his numbers dropped last year with the Arizona Diamondbacks and Tampa Bay Rays. The 35-year-old left-hander hit .251/.316/.415 with a .731 OPS, 12 home runs, 59 RBI and 39 runs scored in 490 plate appearances and 134 games played. In Los Angeles, he's expected to be in a part-time platoon in left field against right-handed pitching. In his career, Peralta has an .836 OPS against righties and a .663 OPS against left-handers. Because of his expected part-time role, Peralta isn't a must-draft in shallow mixed leagues in 2023.

Fri Feb 10 202318:28David Peralta Agrees With Dodgers On Friday
Free-agent outfielder David Peralta and the Los Angeles Dodgers agreed to a one-year, $6.5 million deal on Friday, according to sources. Incentives can take the total of the deal up to $8 million. The 35-year-old left-handed hitter will join Trayce Thompson, Chris Taylor and others to likely see at-bats in left field for the Dodgers in 2023. He spent the 2022 season with the Arizona Diamondbacks and Tampa Bay Rays and hit a combined .251/.316/.415 with a .731 OPS, 12 home runs, 59 RBI and 39 runs scored in 490 plate appearances over 134 games. Peralta really struggled against left-handed pitching in 2022, so he'll most likely be ticketed for a platoon role in LA's outfield. He'll be on the fringe of mixed-league relevance, but the lineup upgrade shouldn't be overlooked.

Sat Oct 8 202211:48David Peralta Starting On Bench In Game 2
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder David Peralta will remain on the bench for Game 2 of the American League Wild-Card Series on Saturday against the Cleveland Guardians and right-hander Triston McKenzie. Peralta has been on the bench for the first two games of the Wild-Card Series against the Guardians against right-handed pitchers, and it could be related to the fact that he injured his hip towards the end of the regular season earlier this week. Randy Arozarena is in left field for the Rays and is hitting third against McKenzie. The 35-year-old Peralta was much better against right-handed pitchers this year, going .267 (100-for-374) with 11 of his 12 home runs coming against them.

Mon Oct 3 202214:52David Peralta Not In Monday's Lineup
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder David Peralta isn't in the team's lineup on Monday for a matchup with the Boston Red Sox and veteran left-handed starter Rich Hill. Peralta is batting .249 with a .313 on-base percentage, 12 home runs, and a stolen base in 486 plate appearances this season. Instead, Manuel Margot will move over to right field with Jose Siri entering the lineup in center field. Siri is batting ninth against Hill and the Red Sox on Monday. He's logged a .214 average to go along with a .270 on-base percentage, seven home runs, and 14 stolen bases in 319 plate appearances this season. The outfielder could be worth a look as a streaming option for fantasy managers in deeper leagues.

Sun Oct 2 202215:00David Peralta Leaves Sunday's Game Early
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder David Peralta was removed from Sunday's contest against the Astros early with an apparent injury. There hasn't been an official reason given as to why he left the game but beat writer Mark Topkin noted that Peralta was "grimacing after his swing and looking uncomfortable as he ran to 1B" following his first at-bat of the contest. The veteran outfielder was replaced by Jonathan Aranda. The team should provide a reason for the early exit soon enough.

Sat Aug 13 202213:27David Peralta Out On Saturday
Tampa Bay Rays outfielder David Peralta (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. Manager Kevin Cash has opted to give some of his left-handed batters a rest against southpaw DL Hall. Roman Quinn will cover right field and bat eighth in this game. Fantasy managers should expect Peralta to be in the lineup for their next contest. Quinn doesn't offer enough upside with the bat to warrant using as a reliable streaming option.
