Javier Perez
Pitching scouting report · 80Grade
Scouting summary
Perez has a chance to remain a useful organizational starter because he has handled innings, limited walks, and missed bats at the lower levels. The more conservative projection is a bullpen or up-and-down role, where a compact workload can emphasize his breaking ball and reduce exposure to a lineup's third look. His path to a stable major-league role requires confirming that the fastball has enough velocity and movement to avoid the home-run damage seen in 2026, while also demonstrating a second reliable bat-missing pitch and consistent execution against High-A and upper-level hitters.
