Eury Pérez Fantasy Stats

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.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez is reportedly fully healthy heading into the regular season. In a recent interview, Perez said he had a healthy off-season and is feeling good heading into Spring Training. This is good news for the Marlins, who only got 20 starts from Perez last season. The 22-year-old has a ton of potential, but staying healthy on the mound has been the biggest problem. He made 19 starts in 2023 and then missed all of the 2024 campaign due to injury. When healthy, Perez was sharp on the mound last season. He posted a 4.25 ERA, 1.04 WHIP, and a 105/32 K/BB ratio across his 20 starts. Both the Marlins and fantasy managers are hopeful for a full season from Perez in 2026.

The Miami Marlins and Eury Perez are reportedly getting closer to agreeing on a five or six-year extension, according to Craig Mish of the SportsGrid. Earlier this spring, the Marlins opened contract-extension talks with P rez, but the two sides were initially about $15 million apart. That gap now appears to be resolved. The 22-year-old flashed legitimate upside in the majors last season, posting a 4.25 ERA (3.80 SIERA) and a 27.3% strikeout rate across 95 innings. Durability and command have been his main shortcomings, but he reached a career-high 118 innings last year while lowering his walk rate. Looking ahead to 2026, P rez has the ceiling of a fantasy ace, and he won't cost you a top-75 pick.

The Miami Marlins initiated contract-extension talks with right-hander Eury Perez in the spring of this year, according to Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic. However, talks failed to progress beyond the initial stages, with the gap between the two sides being around $15 million in guaranteed money. Perez is at two-plus years of service time and will play for around the minimum of $780,000 in 2026 before becoming eligible for salary arbitration. In 19 starts as a rookie in 2023, Perez impressed with a 3.15 ERA and 10.6 strikeouts per nine innings. He finished that year on the injured list with inflammation in his right shoulder. The Dominican had Tommy John surgery in 2024 but returned this June and finished with a 4.25 ERA in 95 1/3 innings. The hard-throwing right-hander will be just 22 years old in 2026 and has a rare combination of size, command, and fastball quality.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez was dominant on Sunday in an 11-1 win against the Orioles, striking out six over seven scoreless frames. He allowed three hits and didn't walk a single batter. The youngster had a rocky first four starts in his return to the mound for the first time since 2023, but has seemingly figured things out over his past three outings. During that span, the 22-year-old has allowed one earned run on six hits and one walk while striking out 21 over 18 innings. This is the potential many saw in him as he rose through the minor leagues as one of the most highly-regarded prospects in baseball. He'll carry a 3.18 ERA into the All-Star break, and he could very well be a must-start pitcher for fantasy the rest of the way.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez gave up two hits and one earned run in his team's 12-2 victory over the hosting Cincinnati Reds. He struck out eight to pick up his second consecutive win, improving to 2-2 through six starts. That marks back-to-back stellar outings for the 22-year-old, with a Matt McLain solo home run accounting for the only blemish against him over his last 11 innings pitched. Perez has struck out 15 batters over that span, yielding just three hits and a walk. It's worth noting that there were a good number of hard-hit balls in the little contact he allowed Tuesday, but he's mostly done well to mitigate that thus far. Perez will look to keep the good times rolling when he next takes the mound in a road matchup with the Baltimore Orioles.

Miami Marlins starting pitcher Eury Perez was nearly untouchable on the mound during Thursday's outing against the Minnesota Twins. Before this outing, Perez had allowed three earned runs or more in three of his last four starts. Finally, Perez showed what he's capable of doing on the mound during Thursday's start. The right-hander tossed six scoreless innings, allowed one hit, one walk, and struck out seven batters in the win. Perez only needed 80 pitches to get through this outing, so he might've been able to go deeper in the game. This outing shows that Perez has some of the best stuff in the game, but the consistency has been the problem. His next outing will be versus the Cincinnati Reds next week. Perez should be a popular waiver wire pickup after this outing.
