Salvador Perez | Fantasy Outlook

Salvador Perez mired in a deep slump but finds favorable matchups ahead

The veteran slugger is in a deep slump, batting just .105 over his last 14 days and .059 over the past week. His struggles reflect those of the fourth-place Royals, who are 28-40 in the AL Central and managing several injuries, including Kyle Isbel on the injured list. Despite the cold stretch, Perez remains Kansas City's primary designated hitter and backup catcher, securing his daily lineup spot.

This icy spell contrasts sharply with our season projection of 20 home runs and a .251 average. Having hit 30 homers last year and already launching nine this season, his power has not disappeared. At age 36, this is a standard mid-season lull, and his career track record suggests a swift return to his established baseline.

For the remainder of the week, the Royals play one more against Texas before hosting Houston. Perez draws highly favorable matchups against Tatsuya Imai (5.24 ERA) and Mike Burrows (5.77 ERA), though Spencer Arrighetti (2.21 ERA) looms on Sunday. Given his steady DH volume and the weak pitchers ahead, keep him in your lineup. Start.
