David Peralta has played his first six-and-a-half seasons with the Arizona Diamondbacks where the Outfielder has displayed a balanced offensive game. Peralta has had four 10 Home Run seasons (which includes a 30 Home Run season in 2018) and in 2015 he would lead the National League in Triples while also batting .312. Defensively, Peralta won a Gold Glove in 2019, and was arguably in contention for others.
The D-Nacks traded Peralta to the contenting Tampa Bay Rays during the 2022 Season, ending his run in Arizona with 960 Hits, 110 Home Runs and a .283 Batting Average. No matter how it ends for Peralta, it hasn't been bad for the failed Venezuelan Pitcher who the St. Louis Cardinals gave up on four years before he signed with Arizona.
Now if only he focused on being an Outfielder right away!
