Freddy Peralta struck out nine batters, but was tagged for five runs on four hits over 3 1/3 innings in a Cactus League start against the Angels on Thursday.

It's one of the strangest final lines your'e ever going to see as nine of the 10 outs Peralta recorded in this one came via strikeout. He also walked three batters and gave up a three-run homer to Justin Bour in the third inning. If the effectively wild phenomenon truly exists, then this has to be the perfect example of was the polar opposite end of the spectrum, ineffectively wild. The 22-year-old misses plenty of bats, but his shaky fastball command leads to elevated pitch counts and prevents him from working deep into starts. Fantasy owners should consider Peralta a talented work in progress for now.
