Continues surge Monday Perez went 1-for-2 with a walk and a two-run home run in Monday's 6-3 win over the Twins.

Impact Perez hit his ninth home run of the season in the fifth inning, continuing his strong play as of late. The outfielder has gone 10-for-21 over his last six games with two home runs, two doubles, a triple and four RBI. Perez has also swiped two bases during the hot stretch, showing some nice fantasy versatility. The 25-year-old has been a bit up and down this year, though he seems to be trending upward recently, and he continues to see steady playing time in right field for a fairly reliable floor.

Overall, Perez is slashing .253/.303/.477 across 51 games, and he's settled in as Detroit's primary right fielder since his return from the 60-day injured list in late May.

Runs wild in Tuesday's rout Perez went 3-for-5 with a double, a triple, four runs scored, an RBI and two stolen bases in Tuesday's 12-2 win over the Diamondbacks.

On the season, Perez is slashing .246/.298/.455 with seven homers, five steals, 22 RBI and 28 runs in 49 contests.

Exiting lineup for series finale Perez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Mariners.

Impact He'll give way to Matt Vierling in right field for the series finale after starting each of the last four games while going 4-for-13 with two walks, three runs, one RBI and one stolen base during that stretch. Though he appears to be facing competition from Vierling and Parker Meadows for one of two spots in the Detroit outfield against right-handed pitching, Perez has done well to maintain steady playing time since returning from the injured list in late May. Unless he's used off the bench Sunday, Perez will head into the All-Star break with a .266/.321/.516 slash line through 38 games.

Records two hits, stolen base Perez went 2-for-3 with a run scored in Friday's 12-3 loss to the Mariners. He also stole a base.

Impact The steal was just the second of the season for Perez, and Friday also marked his first two-hit game since June 24. In 14 contests since that game, the outfielder is batting just .204 with a .591 OPS. Overall, Perez has a much stronger .266 batting average and .843 OPS, which are boosted up due to his hot start once he got back from the injured list in late May. Perez still has some fantasy appeal in his starting role, though the unsustainable production he was delivering earlier has tailed off.

Taking seat Monday Perez is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rays.

Impact Zach McKinstry will step in as the Tigers' right fielder Monday while Perez heads to the bench after starting in each of the last six games. Perez's season got off to a delayed start after he missed the first two months of the campaign due to a lumbar spine inflammation, but he's provided Detroit with another impact bat since making his return. Through 34 games, the 25-year-old has cobbled together a .261/.312/.539 slash line with seven home runs, one stolen base, 19 RBI and 19 runs.

Impact Perez hit his first home run in July, and seventh of the season, in the third inning to get the Tigers on the board. It's been a small sample size of just 31 games this season, but the 25-year-old is enjoying a breakout campaign so far, slashing .269/.316/.565 on the season, well past his .242/.300/.383 line in 112 games from 2024.
