D-backs bank on improvement from within after 110-loss year

The Arizona Diamondbacks believe they're a much better team than last season, when they lost 110 games and finished in last place in the National League West

Starts Tuesday Perdomo started at shortstop and went 0-for-2 with a walk and a run scored in Tuesday's spring training game against the Cubs.

Impact Perdomo got the start at short with Nick Ahmed (shoulder) unavailable for now. Thus far, Josh Rojas and Perdomo have filled in at short since Ahmed's injury was revealed. Perdomo should generate interest in drafts or auctions, given the productive second half he put up in 2021, including a promising 11-game stint in the majors.

Could get work with Ahmed ailing Perdomo could get work at shortstop early in the year with Nick Ahmed dealing with a shoulder injury.

Impact Ahmed had an MRI on his shoulder which yielded inconclusive results, so it wouldn't be that surprising if he opened the year on the injured list. Perdomo might already be the better all-around player, as both guys are good defensive shortstops while Ahmed has a lengthy track record as a below-average hitter. Perdomo came on strong at the end of last season in the upper minors and in the majors and he has a chance to steal double-digit bases over a full season.

D-Backs' Geraldo Perdomo putting new swing on display in majors Diamondbacks prospect Geraldo Perdomo has been hitting balls hard the past week, providing hope that his new swing will play in the majors.

Back in lineup Perdomo started at shortstop and went 2-for-3 in Wednesday's 1-0 loss to San Francisco.

Impact Perdomo, who was called up Sunday, made his second start in three games while serving as a pinch hitter in the other. He's hit in all three contests, going 4-for-6 with a double and a walk. He and Josh Rojas are sharing shortstop until the end of the season with Nick Ahmed (shoulder) done for the year. Looking ahead to 2022, the 31-year-old Ahmed still has two years left on his deal and the versatile Rojas has earned an everyday spot somewhere. It looks like Perdomo will build off the success he achieved in August at Double-A Amarillo while beginning 2022 at Triple-A Reno.

Starts Sunday Perdomo started at shortstop and went 1-for-2 with a walk in Sunday's 3-0 loss to the Dodgers.

Impact Perdomo returned to the majors after the Diamondbacks placed Nick Ahmed (shoulder) on the injured list. Perdomo's overall numbers in the minor leagues may appear unremarkable, but digging deeper reveals a more hopeful story. The shortstop was hitting .151 for Double-A Amarillo in July, when the organization sent him to the team's spring training facility to revamp his swing, according to Nick Piecoro of the Arizona Republic. He returned to play a month later and had the best stretch of his minor-league career, posting a .321/.406/.530 line over the next 35 games. "I think he's made considerable improvements from an offensive standpoint," manager Torey Lovullo said. "I don't want to set the bar too high, but he has made some swing adjustments, especially from the left-hand side, where he's generating a little bit more force, a little bit more bat speed, and we've seen that exit velocity climb over the past several weeks of his at-bats in the minor leagues." Perdomo was then promoted to Triple-A Reno, where we went 5-for-12 with two walks prior to Sunday's callup.

Joins big-league roster Perdomo was recalled by the Diamondbacks on Sunday and will head straight into the starting lineup, batting eighth and playing shortstop against the Dodgers.

Impact Perdomo made his big-league debut in early April but was sent down after appearing in just four games, going 1-for-10 at the plate. He's spent the bulk of the season with Double-A Amarillo, where he's hit an unremarkable .231/.351/.357 with six homers and eight steals in 82 games, though that performance begins to look much better once his age (21) is factored in. He'll get the chance to make a brief audition in the final week of the season, as Nick Ahmed (shoulder) hit the injured list in a corresponding move.

Optioned to alternate camp Perdomo was optioned to the Diamondbacks' alternate training site Saturday.

Impact Perdomo got his first taste of major-league action early in the 2021 campaign and went 1-for-10 with a run, three walks and two strikeouts in four games. However, he'll head to the team's alternate camp after Nick Ahmed (knee) was activated from the 10-day injured list in a corresponding move. Josh Rojas should serve as the backup shortstop for Arizona now that Ahmed is healthy.

Not starting Wednesday Perdomo is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game at Colorado.

Impact Perdomo is 1-for-9 with one run, two walks and two strikeouts through his first three big-league games, and he will take a seat Wednesday. Josh Rojas is starting at shortstop while Eduardo Escobar and Asdrubal Cabrera start at second and third base, respectively.

Making first big-league start Perdomo will start at shortstop and bat eighth Sunday against the Padres.

Impact After making his debut off the bench Saturday, Perdomo will enter the starting lineup for the first time as a major leaguer to face right-hander Chris Paddack. The expectation is that Josh Rojas will get the majority of the starts at shortstop while Nick Ahmed (knee) is sidelined, but Perdomo is a top prospect in the organization and his running ability makes him an interesting streamer in leagues that allow daily roster moves.

Enters game late Perdomo made his MLB debut Saturday and struck out in his lone at-bat in a 7-0 loss to the Padres.

Impact Perdomo entered the blowout loss in the eighth inning and got his first MLB at-bat. He's up with Arizona while Nick Ahmed (knee) is on the injured list, but Josh Rojas is expected to get the majority of starts at short, per Steve Gilbert of MLB.com.

Bound for Triple-A The Diamondbacks optioned Perdomo to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday.

Impact Arizona's top middle-infield prospect is expected to spend the majority of the 2021 campaign at Triple-A after having lost out on some critical development time in 2020 due to the cancellation of the minor-league season. The 21-year-old shortstop showcased impressive plate discipline and good speed during his stint in the California League in 2019, posting a .407 on-base percentage and 1.27 BB/K while stealing six bags for High-A Visalia.
