Geraldo Perdomo DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo went yard in the eighth inning of the team's 9-0 win over the Orioles on Wednesday. The Diamondbacks jumped out to an early lead in the rubber game of their three-game home set with Baltimore and cruised to a comfortable series win. Perdomo's home run capped a 3-for-4 day for the No. 2 hitter, who now has two homers on the season and is batting .333 with four extra-base hits, two stolen bases, and a .384 wOBA. He has a 27.7% hard-hit rate, per Statcast, which would be the best mark of his career in a qualifying season if he can continue to find success. He's in a great lineup spot for Arizona and is definitely worth playing for fantasy while he continues to fill in at the top of the order while Ketel Marte (hamstring) is on the injured list.

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo will bat at the top of the order on Saturday afternoon against the Washington Nationals. With Ketel Marte (hamstring) hitting the 10-day injured list, the Diamondbacks will move Perdomo up to the top of the batting order. This is surprising as Corbin Carroll has also seen time as a leadoff hitter this season and throughout his career. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor Perdomo's deployment as he could have increased short-term value batting in the leadoff spot. Through the early part of the campaign, Perdomo has posted a strong .379/.375/.552 slash line with two doubles and one home run across eight contests. This afternoon, he carries value in DFS formats facing Washington southpaw Mitchell Parker.

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo went 1-for-5 with a grand slam in a 9-7 loss to the New York Yankees on Thursday. Perdomo launched a homer with the bases loaded in the seventh inning to cut the Yankees' lead to 9-7, but that was the last of the scoring for the Diamondbacks in the loss. The veteran infielder is off to a nice start in 2025, picking up eight hits and 11 RBI across 25 at-bats for his team. Perdomo will look to stay hot as Arizona opens up a weekend series against the Washington Nationals on Friday.

Shortstop Geraldo Perdomo and the Arizona Diamondbacks agreed to a four-year, $45 million contract extension on Monday that includes a club option, sources told ESPN's Jeff Passan. Perdomo's new deal will start in 2026 and buys out up to three years for the 25-year-old. Perdomo gets rewarded after hitting a career-best .273 (92-for-337) with three home runs, 37 RBI, nine stolen bases and 61 runs scored in 98 games for the Snakes in 2024 after he was a first-time All-Star in 2023. He missed over two months after suffering a knee injury in early April but put up solid numbers when healthy. However, fantasy managers may want to expect some regression for Perdomo unless he improves his plate discipline, as his average was propped up by a favorable .317 BABIP in 2024. The extension for Perdomo is bad news for shortstop prospect Jordan Lawlar, who continues to be set back by injuries.

Arizona Diamondbacks shortstop Geraldo Perdomo (knee) will start his minor-league rehab assignment with Triple-A Reno on Wednesday. This was the original plan after Perdomo started taking at-bats in the Arizona Complex League over the weekend. Perdomo will now face stiffer competition at Reno and could be cleared to return from the 10-day injured list later this week if he doesn't suffer any setbacks with his knee. The Snakes have used a combination of rookie Blaze Alexander and more recently veteran Kevin Newman at shortstop since losing Perdomo to a knee injury early in April. The 24-year-old Perdomo will return to starting duties at the 6 in the desert when he's fully healthy after being named to his first career All-Star team in 2023 with a .246/.353/.359 slash line, six homers, 47 RBI and 16 steals in 144 games.
