Martin Perez: Braves’ Underrated Ace | MLB News

Martin Perez, signed to a minor league deal in January and briefly designated for assignment, has turned into a Braves steal this season—pitching like a veteran ace with elite control and minimal risk. At 35, he’s posted a 3.08 ERA and 98 strikeouts over 131⅔ innings in 28 games, including a record-setting seven scoreless innings at home against the Rays. His consistency and home dominance have him in playoff contention—and possibly Game Two of a Wild Card series. With his future uncertain but his value undeniable, a big league contract and return to Atlanta seem likely.
