After multiple injuries to veteran infielder Josh Donaldson, the New York Yankees have finally promoted prospect Oswald Peraza.
Peraza’s Early Experience with the Yankees
Earlier in the season, Peraza spent a few weeks with the Yankees but was sent back to the minors on May 3, after an extra-innings victory over the Cleveland Guardians. While he didn’t have an opportunity to bat, he managed to steal a base, highlighting his potential offensive value.
Nevertheless, the Yankees’ management chose to provide their veteran players with opportunities at third base, despite Donaldson being sidelined with a hamstring injury.
