T94 4x; lacks plane and is flat more often than not; armside run; elevated offering throughout start and was consistently barreled; command and control both need significant refinement; velo will not be enough to succeed unless he can tighten command and control. |

Inconsistent arm speed replication; sweeping action; release points are highly inconsistent; refinement in arm speed and release points will improve offering a tick. |

Signed as an international free agent for $200,000 in 2012.
Peralta has a lively FB but lacks the plane, command and control to efficiently work through a lineup. His SL and CH are not strong enough to stick as a SP, but there is enough with the FB/SL to work as a org arm or potential up-and-down RP. The risk is high, as there is much worked needed with refinement of the arsenal.
