Pereira’s Power & Struggles | MLB News

The Cardinals just pulled in power-hitting outfielder Everson Pereira off waivers from the White Sox, who had to let him go due to roster moves. Pereira, 25, a former top-100 prospect with the Yankees, brings serious raw power but struggles with strikeouts—nearly 40% in the majors. While his MLB numbers suffer, he’s been a force in Triple-A, hitting for power and showing promise despite the Ks. The White Sox, in rebuilding mode, hoped to give him a shot this year, but injuries—including ankle, pectoral, and concussion issues—have derailed his progress. Now, with no minor league options left, Pereira must earn his spot on the active roster if the Cards want to keep him.
