-
Performance with the Angels: Reports in April 2026 indicated Peraza had started several games at second and third base, posting a batting line around the .210s to .270s range in limited time, with a mix of power and speed elements included in his small sample. This suggests he’s seen as a flexible, infield depth option for Los Angeles, though his playing time has fluctuated due to roster moves and the presence of other infield options.

Recent notable performances: A standout game in mid-April 2026 featured Peraza going 3-for-3 with a solo homer and a walk in a win over the Yankees, highlighting his potential to contribute offensively when he’s in the lineup. This came amid a broader impression that he can provide sporadic pop and on-base ability when he’s in a groove. [sources: RotoWire, Fox Sports]

Situational role: Throughout the early portion of the season, Peraza has been in and out of the lineup as teams balance infield depth (including Vaughn Grissom’s return and other infield options). Expect him to appear more in certain matchups or as a defensive replacement, with opportunities contingent on injuries and roster tweaks. [sources: CBSSports, Heavy Sports, FOX Sports]

- Peak recent highlight: 3-for-3 with a home run in a single game
