7/18/15: GDT - Chicago Cubs @ Atlanta Braves

Just a quick check of peraza shows he's hitting .289 his last 10 games. He's 3-5 tonight, which isn't included in the above avg

I know you are new here, but prepare yourself to see some stats that are in this format ...."WRC+~R " or "YeY2 /2" to counteract your post.
 
Over a larger sample peraza is struggling. He's also doing it in the minors. And peraza is a eh hitter who never walks or has power. Why start his clock?

We've brought up folty, banuelos, and wisler. Apparently we aren't worried about clocks. Besides albies is the most likely 2b of the future

Yeah, I suck with advanced stats. I do know Peterson is absolutely horrid right now. Peraza is a consensus top 50 prospect. Why not peraza?

Every situation different. Those guys are older. Folty click was started. Pitchers need to get their lumps early.

Peraza just isn't that good.
 
Watching this show Driven: John Smoltz - A Hall of Fame Career brings back a lot of memories.

The run of 14 straight division championships will never be duplicated.
 
Despite a really cold start and cold now Peterson isn't that far off peraza for season numbers. And Peterson is in the majors. And Peterson has more pop off the top of my head.

I'm not saying Peterson should hit first or is our long term answer at 2b. But peraza isn't exactly a kris Bryant. He's not making an appreciable difference in this team.

We need him at Ss an leading a package for a bat

No he's not a Kris Bryant but he's still worth calling up.

Why trade him before seeing what he can do in the big leagues?

Peterson last 7 games...

.192 avg .250 obp .269 slugging

Peterson last 15 games...

.172 avg .238 obp .259 slugging

Peterson last 30 games...

.207 avg .290 obp .345 slugging

It's not exactly like he's kris Bryant either.

Take a look at those last 30 games' stats. You don't think peraza could do better than that? I think he could and he'd add base stealing threat

Fair points. But let's not pretend Peraza's lighting the world on fire in AAA. Yes he's very young for the level but Jace deserves more time. Even with Jace now down to .249 he still has a higher OBP then Peraza in AAA with a lot more XBH's and better defense.
 
Peraza is not yet a finished product. He is a 21 year old having a decent but not great season in AAA. We just waste service time calling these guys up when they aren't ready. We did it with Bethancourt.
