Wily Peralta hasn’t been a great starting pitcher for the Milwaukee Brewers. Heck, sometimes he’s downright frustrating. He throws hard, but doesn’t strike out batters. He pitches to contact, but suffers from high walk rates.
Now it looks like Peralta is addressing one of his biggest weaknesses; his performance against left-handed hitters. Wily has been solid against right-handed batters in his career, to the tune of a .705 opponent OPS. Not earth-shattering, but solid.
Lefties, however, have slashed .291/.350/.465 against the flamethrower. This is largely due to his lack of a consistent out-pitch against those hitters.
