Salvador PérezKCR · C/1B
2026 review
Salvador Pérez was a high-volume swing-first bat who didn't take walks, and it showed: .229/.274/.383 over 627 PA in 580 AB for KCR, with 24 2B, 21 HR, 50 R and 78 RBI. He posted a 19.0 K% and a 4.0 BB% over 627 PA, and that 4.0 BB% was the 10th lowest of 267 hitters with 300+ PA. He appeared in 152 games from Mar 27 through Sep 27. Drafted at NFBC ADP rank 90, he finished 219th of 1472 in the TDK LABS 5x5 value rank, 129 spots below, and 14th of 46 DH. His .285 wOBA ran 31 points below his .316 xwOBA over 627 PA. The TDK LABS card tracked a shift over the year: by early May it had him sliding to first base as a fill-in with little chatter otherwise, by mid-Aug it was framing him as a volume-relevant power source, and by mid and late Sep it was pointing to contact quality running well above the surface batting line.
