As the Cincinnati Reds entered spring training left handed reliever Wandy Peralta was not really in the conversation for a bullpen spot. Bryan Price, however, was telling people about his improvements early on:
[He has] a really good changeup and a slider that’s impressed me as being better this year. The command and sharpness has been better.
In the past, it’s been the control, and the lack of a usable breaking ball against lefties that’s held him back. In 7.1 big league innings last year he walked seven batters. In the minors during 2016 he dominated in Pensacola in 17.
