FACTS/FLUKES: Peraza, Mahtook, L. Weaver, Kela, Joyce

Does Peraza have the skills to seize playing time opportunity?... The recent trade of Brandon Phillips (2B, ATL) appears to have created an opening for 23-year-old José Peraza (2B, CIN), who hit .324 with 21 steals over 241 AB in 2016 in his first extended stint in the majors. How likely is he to repeat that performance over a full season?
