Wily Peralta allowed three runs over six innings in taking a no-decision against the Marlins on Tuesday.
Peralta was better than his last time out, but the right-hander still owns a 6.03 ERA and 1.66 WHIP on the season. His low strikeout total has been especially troubling, as Peralta now has just 43 punchouts in 74 2/3 innings. He'll have a week off in between starts, with his next scheduled for Tuesday in Houston against the lowly Astros. Jun 11 - 9:43 PM

Date:

Wily Peralta’s difficult 2013 season continued in Thursday’s loss to the Phillies, as he was tagged for five runs on seven hits in his five innings.

Peralta also walked four on the night while punching out just two. While he’s shown the occasional flashes of brilliance, the 24-year-old right-hander may be best served getting more seasoning in the minor leagues. He'll carry a 4-7 record and 6.16 ERA into Tuesday's start against the Marlins in Miami. Even with the intriguing matchup, he shouldn't be trusted in most fantasy leagues at this point.
Jun 6 - 11:29 PM

Wily Peralta pitched seven innings of two-run ball to beat the Phillies on Saturday.

Peralta had lost four straight starts, giving up 21 runs -- 16 earned -- in 17 2/3 innings during the span. Today's start was the first in 12 outings this season in which he's completed seven innings. At 4-6 with a 5.94 ERA, he's still a poor risk in NL-only leagues.
Jun 1 - 7:25 PM

Wily Peralta will move up a day in the rotation to start Saturday against the Phillies.

Mike Fiers was originally scheduled to go Saturday, but he'll be pushed back to Sunday. Peralta allowed four runs (three earned) in five innings Monday against the Twins and has lost four straight starts.
May 31 - 4:55 PM

Wily Peralta gave up four runs -- three earned -- and walked five in five innings Monday in a loss to the Twins.

If not for Kyle Lohse's injury, there's a good chance Peralta would have been sent down after his last start. The Brewers really don't have any quality alternatives, but Peralta isn't doing them any good with his 6.35 ERA and 1.73 WHIP through 10 stats.
May 27 - 5:25 PM

Wily Peralta lasted just 1 2/3 innings and gave up six runs -- four earned -- Wednesday in a loss to the Dodgers.

Even Peralta's good outings haven't been anything special, and he's now 3-5 with a 6.45 ERA for the season. The Brewers may think about making a switch to Mike Fiers and sending Peralta down, though they can only go that route if Kyle Lohse proves healthy. Unfortunately, their Triple-A rotation has been awful, so there's no help there.
May 22 - 4:52 PM

Wily Peralta was knocked around for seven runs (six earned) over five innings Friday in a loss to the Cardinals.

Peralta gave up five runs in the first inning, the big blow of which was a grand slam by David Freese. He hung in there for another four innings and finished with a season-high six strikeouts, but the damage was already done. With a 5.94 ERA through nine starts, he'll need to show more consistency to be trusted in fantasy leagues.
May 17 - 11:34 PM

Wily Peralta allowed four runs -- three earned -- on five hits and two walks over six innings in Sunday's loss to the Reds.

Peralta was tagged for four runs and got his pitch count way up in the first three innings. He settled in a bit after that, but by then it was too late. The youngster also struck out just three and hasn't whiffed more than five in any start this season. The lack of strikeouts and inconsistent results have made him a fantasy option best left on the waiver wire. He'll take on the Cardinals next.
May 12 - 4:22 PM

Wily Peralta limited the Rangers to three runs -- two earned -- over six innings on Tuesday night.

Peralta scattered five hits and did not walk a batter, bouncing back nicely from his disastrous outing last Thursday against the Cardinals. The young right-hander got his third win and dropped his ERA from 6.00 to 5.54. He is a fringe option in NL-only fantasy leagues.
May 7 - 11:24 PM

Wily Peralta was tagged for six runs in 4 1/3 innings by the Cardinals on Thursday.

The BABIP gods were unhappy with Peralta tonight: the rookie allowed 11 hits, every last one of which was a single. Seven of those hits came in the Cardinals' six-run third inning. Peralta gets the Rangers next time out, so NL-only leaguers will probably want to keep him reserved.
May 2 - 11:41 PM

Wily Peralta allowed three runs in six innings Saturday in a win over the Dodgers on Saturday.

Peralta has won two in a row, and he's turned in three quality starts in five tries this season. Less impressive are his 5.02 ERA and 15/12 K/BB ratio through 28 2/3 innings. He's worth owning in NL-only leagues, but he's not a great play with the Cardinals next on the schedule.
Apr 28 - 1:07 AM

Wily Peralta allowed six runs -- five earned -- in four innings against the Giants on Tuesday.

It was a disappointing showing for the righty, who would have earned an easy win if he'd just lasted another inning. He was only slightly less effective than his counterpart, though, allowing seven hits and three walks while striking out one in his four innings. He'll face the Cubs on Sunday, but at this point it's hard to know what to expect from the 23-year-old.
Apr 16 - 11:55 PM

Wily Peralta allowed three runs -- two earned -- in 6 2/3 innings as the Brewers lost to the Cubs on Tuesday.

Peralta didn't take the loss for the effort, as the bullpen blew what would have been the 23-year-old's first win of the season. As it is, Peralta has a 4.50 ERA and 1.42 WHIP through two starts. His pursuit of that first victory will continue next Tuesday against the Giants.
Apr 10 - 12:09 AM

Wily Peralta allowed six hits and four runs over 5 1/3 innings in the Brewers' loss to the Rockies on Wednesday.

The 23-year-old is pitching for a chance to remain in the starting rotation, and Wednesday's audition wasn't a strong argument in his favor. Along with the six hits, Peralta walked three batters and allowed a two-run home run to Wilin Rosario. Still, Peralta has much higher upside than Chris Narveson or anyone else who would take his rotation spot. One bad start likely won't change his status.
Apr 3 - 11:48 PM

Wily Peralta gave up four runs (two earned) in 4 1/3 innings in Friday's loss to the Brewers.

Peralta allowed four hits and three walks while striking out three. The 23-year-old right-hander will finish Cactus League play with a 5.40 ERA and 11/7 K/BB ratio over 20 innings this spring. While he makes for an interesting flier in fantasy leagues, some growing pains are to be expected. Chris Narveson lingers as a potential replacement in the bullpen, but hopefully the Brewers exercise patience.
