Carlos Perez – Catcher –

Carlos Perez has been the starting catcher for the LA Angels going into each of the last two seasons and has lost the job both years due to poor performance especially at the plate. Since being sent to Triple-A in late April, Perez has been on fire at the plate. Currently in 107 at-bats Perez has 41 hits which is good for a .383 batting average with two homers and 22 RBI’s and a lofty .443 OBP. 

Perez hit .077 in April going 1 for 13 in April before being sent down to Triple-A  Salt Lake on April 15th.

Will Perez get another chance in the majors this season, most likely yes.  At the very least Perez will get a September call-up and if either Juan Graterol or Martin Maldonado falter or get injured Perez will be on the first plane to Anaheim.
