AI Summary
Salvador Perez went 2-for-2 with a home run, sacrifice fly, and walk, driving in both runs in the Royals' 2-0 victory. Despite some recent decline in strikeout rate and bat speed, he remains a top fantasy catcher prospect.
Perez has been pretty quiet, but that wasn't the case today, as he hit his seventh homer and drove in multiple runs for the fifth time this year. With his strikeout rate up some and his bat speed trending in the other direction, some decline seems to have set in here. Still, it'd be somewhat surprising if he weren't a top-12 fantasy catcher the rest of the way.
