Surprisingly few alternatives for Salvador Perez
Salvador Perez owners might want to make a move for A.J. Pierzynski now, just in case Perez's deep hip bruise ends up requiring a DL stint after all. Oh, you play in one of those leagues where Pierzynski wasn't dropped when he went on the DL? That's unfortunate.
But not too surprising. With Miguel Montero, Jonathan Lucroy and Ryan Doumit struggling out of the gate, Jesus Montero getting fewer at-bats than anyone anticipated, and Carlos Ruiz back out of the lineup, what once was a deep position is suddenly quite thin.
Depending on your format, of course. Few Fantasy owners would start a catcher at utility, so it's possible only 10 or 12 are owned in your league. But any more than that, and you might have to resort to the Tyler Flowers-John Jaso-Jason Castro class in place of the Royals catcher. Pick your poison.
Personally, I'd just go with the hot hand.
