Perez has logged nine hits (including a home run) in 32 at-bats this spring.

Perez officially entered camp in a three-way battle with Jett Bandy and Geovany Soto for the starting catcher's spot, but was likely considered the frontrunner after taking playing time from Chris Iannetta in his final season with the club. Perez was able to close 2015 with a flourish, notching a .933 OPS in September, but finished the year with just a .299 OBP and .096 ISO.
