Notches win Monday Peralta (2-1) earned the win over Tampa Bay on Monday, pitching a scoreless inning during which he allowed one walk and struck out one batter.

Impact Peralta was called upon in the bottom of the ninth after the Yankees had taken a two-run lead in the top of the frame. He allowed a walk to begin his outing and also had a batter reach base on an error behind him, but the left-hander was able to close out the contest without allowing any runs to score. Though the situation in which he entered would typically net Peralta a save, the official scorer instead decided to credit him with the win per MLB Rule 9.17(c).

Picks up first save Peralta allowed one walk and struck out two across 1.1 scoreless innings to earn the save in the first game of Thursday's doubleheader against the Angels.

Impact Peralta entered the game with a five-run lead but with the bases loaded. He retired Jared Walsh to end the threat and closed out the final frame without incident. It was Peralta's first save of the season, and he doesn't figure to find himself in the closer role often with both Aroldis Chapman (Achilles) and Clay Holmes occupying the ninth inning. Even so, Peralta has had an effective start to the campaign by maintaining a 2.08 ERA and 11:6 K:BB across 17.1 frames.

Nabs win Tuesday Peralta (1-0) was credited with the win Tuesday against Toronto. He allowed one walk and struck out one batter in a scoreless inning of relief.

Impact Peralta came on in the top of the ninth inning with New York trailing by two runs. He walked George Springer with two outs but retired the other three batters he faced to keep the deficit at two. Peralta was then credited with the win after Aaron Judge belted a walkoff three-run homer in the bottom of the frame. The left-handed reliever has been solid this season, posting a 1.64 ERA and 1.18 WHIP over 11 innings. His 6:5 K:BB isn't ideal, however.

Secures one-year, $2.15M deal Peralta and the Yankees agreed Tuesday on a one-year, $2.15 million contract to avoid arbitration, Joel Sherman of the New York Post reports.

Impact Peralta will more than double his salary from 2021 after he emerged as an unsung hero out of the New York bullpen following his acquisition from the Giants last April. In his 46 relief appearances with the Yankees, Peralta collected five holds and three saves while turning in a 2.95 ERA in 42.2 innings. He'll be part of the bridge to closer Aroldis Chapman once again in 2022.

The southpaw was credited with the win as a result of New York rallying for two runs in the top of the ninth. Peralta has struck out five batters in his last 3.2 frames but has also walked five over that stretch.

SEPTEMBER 16, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Takes loss Monday Peralta (4-3) allowed one run on one hit and a walk while striking out two over an inning of work as he took the loss Monday against the Angels.

Impact Peralta entered in the eighth trying to preserve a 7-7 tie. He gave up a leadoff single to Brandon Marsh, who would end up advancing to third on two groundouts before being brought home on a base hit from Juan Lagares. Raisel Iglesias would shut the Yankees down the following inning to end the game. Monday's run was Peralta's first given up in 11 appearances this month. He now sits at a 3.76 ERA, 1.25 WHIP and 29:12 K:BB over 38.1 innings.

AUGUST 31, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Impact Peralta was summoned from the bullpen after Aroldis Chapman walked Jorge Soler with the bases loaded to bring the Braves within one.
