A Case for Jhonny Peralta

Jhonny Peralta had his $7.25MM option turned down by the Tigers today and will instead pay a $250K buyout. While the team is still going to try to resign Peralta, we can take a look at what we can expect from the 28 year old shortstop. In the last 3 years he has maintained an average walk rate, taking a free pass around 8.0% of the time. He has struck out a bit more than average...

Payroll Flexibility is the Key to the Jhonny Peralta Option Decision

Jhonny Peralta isn’t the perfect shortstop, but Troy Tulowitzki is already spoken for, so the team is going to have to settle for something less than ideal anyway.
