Eury Pérez Fantasy Stats

Miami Marlins right-hander Eury Perez's overall numbers in 2026 in his third year in the majors don't jump off the page, as he's gone 5-7 with a 3.53 ERA (4.12 FIP) and 1.11 WHIP with 104 strikeouts and 37 walks in 91 2/3 innings pitched across his 17 starts for the Fish. But the 23-year-old Dominican has been pretty dominant in his last seven outings since he allowed a season-high five earned runs with four walks in five innings in a loss to the Tampa Bay Rays on May 17. In his seven starts since then (39 1/3 innings), Perez has given up just five earned runs on 19 hits (three homers) while walking nine and striking out 46 for a 1.14 ERA (2.67 FIP). His most recent outing on July 19 against the Milwaukee Brewers might have been the most impressive, as he generated 17 swings and misses while throwing six scoreless innings with three walks and nine punchouts. Although Perez's expected ERA sits at 4.05, fantasy managers should continue to ride him into his next scheduled start in an excellent matchup against the punchless San Diego Padres' lineup.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez (thigh) has been activated from the 15-day injured list and will get the ball on Wednesday against the Texas Rangers. Perez has been sidelined since late May due to a right gracilis strain in his thigh. Across 62 2/3 innings (12 starts) this season, Perez has recorded a 3-6 record with a 4.60 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and 72 strikeouts. The 23-year-old's unsatisfactory ERA is largely the result of his inflated walk rate (10.7%) and HR/9 (1.58). However, Perez is averaging 98.3 miles per hour on his fastball and has struck out 27.2% of the batters he's faced in 2026. If the young fireballer can dial in his command and control, he could be in line for a second-half breakout.

Miami Marlins manager Clayton McCullough said that right-hander Eury Perez (thigh) felt great on Monday during his pitch design and was "sneezing 95," according to Marlins reporter Jeremy Tache. It sounds like Perez is getting close to coming off the 15-day injured list and rejoining the Marlins' starting rotation. The 23-year-old could be reinstated from the IL to start on Wednesday in a good matchup against the Texas Rangers as long as he recovers well from his throwing session on Monday. Perez has been sidelined for four weeks due to a right-gracilis muscle strain. Although a matchup against Texas this week is enticing for fantasy managers, keep in mind that Perez only threw 51 pitches in his lone minor-league rehab start, so he will likely be limited from a pitch-count perspective if he returns to the rotation this week. The Dominican hurler will be returning to a 3-6 record, 4.60 ERA (4.66 FIP), and 1.26 WHIP with 72 strikeouts and 28 walks in 62 2/3 innings across his 12 starts. Perez has a nice 27.2% strikeout rate this year, but he also carries a career-high 10.6% walk rate.

Miami Marlins right-hander Eury Perez's (thigh) next start could be with the big-league starting rotation, manager Clayton McCullough told Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. The Marlins clearly liked what they saw out of Perez during his first minor-league rehab start on Thursday at Triple-A Jacksonville, when he gave up just one run while striking out five in 3 2/3 innings of work. The 23-year-old was sitting in the high-90s with his fastball during the outing. He threw only 51 pitches, though, so if the hard-throwing right-hander does make his next start in the big leagues, he'll have a lower fantasy ceiling. Perez could be lined up to make his next start against the Texas Rangers, a team that currently ranks 24th in baseball with a .700 OPS and 17th with 625 strikeouts on the season. The Dominican hurler has gone 3-6 for the Marlins in 2026 with a 4.60 ERA (4.66 FIP) and 1.26 WHIP with 72 strikeouts and 28 walks in 62 2/3 innings across his 12 starts in his third year in the league. Perez has been pretty inconsistent for fantasy managers, but he should be rostered in most leagues due to his 27.8% career strikeout rate.

Miami Marlins right-hander Eury Perez (thigh) had a solid first minor-league rehab start for Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, allowing just one earned run on three hits while walking none and striking out five in 3 2/3 innings against Triple-A Durham. Perez threw 37 of his 51 pitches as he works his way back from a right-thigh strain. If everything continues to go well, Perez might only need one or two more rehab starts before potentially rejoining the Marlins before the All-Star break in mid-July. In addition to throwing 51 pitches on Thursday on the farm, the 23-year-old Dominican hurler was sitting at 96-98 mph with his fastball, topping out at 99.4 mph, so he looks like he could be ready to rejoin the big-league starting rotation sooner rather than later. Before his thigh injury, Perez had gone 3-6 with a career-high 4.60 ERA (4.66 FIP) and 1.26 WHIP with 72 strikeouts and 28 walks in 62 2/3 innings across his 12 starts in his third year in the majors. His elevated strikeout rate (27.8% in his career) makes him an arm to stash in most fantasy leagues. Perez is currently rostered in 75% of Yahoo leagues while he rehabs.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez (hamstring) is scheduled to begin a minor league rehab assignment with Triple-A Jacksonville on Thursday, per Stephen Strom of 104.3 WQAM. Strom reports that Perez is expected to pitch 3-4 innings and/or throw about 50 pitches. Perez has been on the 15-day injured list since late May with a hamstring strain, but it appears he's getting close to making his return to the Marlins rotation. Across 62 2/3 innings (12 starts) before the injury, the 23-year-old recorded a 3-6 record with a 4.60 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and 72 strikeouts. With his average fastball velocity of 98.3 miles per hour and his 27.2% strikeout rate, Perez remains a high-upside starting pitcher option for fantasy managers. However, he's struggled with both command (10.6% walk rate) and home runs (1.58 HR/9) so far this season.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez (hamstring) was placed on the 15-day Injured List on Friday. This comes after Perez was forced to make an early exit from Wednesday's start against the Toronto Blue Jays. He underwent additional testing, which revealed a right hamstring strain. The team hasn't revealed how long they expect Perez to be out, but hamstring issues often linger. Fantasy managers should expect to be without Perez for at least a few weeks. In a corresponding move, right-hander Josh Ekness has been recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville. It's unclear what the team plans to do with the vacant rotation spot, but that decision should be made soon.

Miami Marlins right-hander Eury Perez (hamstring) was pulled from his start early on Wednesday against the Toronto Blue Jays at the Rogers Centre with a right-hamstring spasm, according to Christina De Nicola of MLB.com. Perez was pitching extremely well before exiting, throwing four scoreless innings with three hits allowed, no walks, and a season-high nine strikeouts. He hit 101 mph with his fastball and was having his best start of the year. Perez appeared to injure himself while stretching before going out for the fifth inning, and he looked to be in quite a bit of pain. Fantasy managers should consider him to be day-to-day until we know more, but we wouldn't be surprised if it turns into an injured-list situation. If Perez avoids a serious injury, he's scheduled to toe the rubber next against the division-rival Washington Nationals next Tuesday. The 23-year-old Dominican has electric stuff, but walks have been an issue, as he entered Wednesday's start with a career-high 11.2% walk rate. He also had a 3-6 record with a 4.91 ERA (5.00 FIP), 1.29 WHIP, and 63:28 K:BB in 58 2/3 frames over 11 starts. UPDATE: Perez is headed for further testing on his injured right hamstring.

Through his first 26 innings pitched (five starts) of 2026, Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez has recorded a 2-1 record with a 4.15 ERA, 1.35 WHIP, and 27 strikeouts. The 23-year-old has struggled with command in the early going of the season, as his walk rate currently sits at a career-worst 10.7%. Perez's strikeout rate is also down from 27.3% to 24.1%. However, the young right-hander's average fastball velocity is up from 97.8 mph to 98.2 mph, which is a good sign that there hasn't been any degradation in his stuff. Perez has been victimized so far this season by an unusually low 65.9% strand rate. If he can be a bit more effective at navigating traffic throughout the remainder of the year, Perez's ERA could gradually decrease. Perez remains a highly talented young arm with plenty of upside and could be an appealing buy-low candidate for fantasy managers after his slow start to 2026.

After undergoing Tommy John surgery in April 2024, Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez did not make it back to the big league mound until June 2025. Upon his return, the 22-year-old posted a 7-6 record with a 4.25 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and 105 strikeouts across 95 1/3 innings (20 starts). While Perez's 4.25 ERA stands out as less than ideal, he posted an excellent 19% K-BB rate and was victimized by a 64% strand rate that is likely to regress. Perez is reportedly fully healthy heading into 2026 and is expected to anchor the Marlins rotation. Perez has been a bit wild so far this spring, issuing a 17.9% walk rate across his three Grapefruit League appearances. Still, his health is more important than his performance in the small sample size of Spring Training. As long as he can avoid the injury bug, Perez has a fantasy SP1 upside in 2026 and beyond.
