Salvador Perez Hits His 17th Home Run
3 years agoKansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez went 2-for-5 with a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's 6-5 loss to the Detroit Tigers. The home run was his 17th of the year, which is tied for sixth-most in the Majors. He is now slashing .287/.320/.533 through 67 games on the year. By most measures, he's been the best catcher in fantasy thus far through the 2021 season and there isn't much reason to believe he'll be slowing down anytime soon. He ranks in the 97th percentile in hard-hit rate (55.2%) and in the 93rd percentile in xSLG (.567).
