Twins' Jhonny Pereda: Making third start in four games
Rotowire
Pereda will start at catcher and bat eighth in Monday's game against the Yankees.
With Ryan Jeffers (concussion) recently joining Christian Vazquez (shoulder) on the injured list, Pereda and Mickey Gasper are left standing as the Twins' lone healthy catchers. Pereda appears to have tentatively emerged as the preferred option of the two, as he'll be drawing his third start in four games Monday. Since being called up from Triple-A St. Paul on Sept. 5, Pereda has gone 6-for-15 with two doubles, two walks and one RBI over six games.

With Shea Langeliers (oblique) headed for the injured list, the A's will call upon Pereda to replenish the big club's depth behind the plate. The 29-year-old backstop has gone just 6-for-36 in the majors this season and will presumably work as a temporary backup to Willie MacIver.

Rotowire
Pereda will start at catcher and bat ninth in Thursday's game against the Rangers.
Pereda has been with the Athletics since Opening Day but will be making just his sixth start of the season through the team's first 32 games. The 29-year-old will likely continue to see sporadic playing time so long as top backstop Shea Langeliers is healthy.

Athletics' Jhonny Pereda: Hitless in first start
Rotowire
Pereda started at catcher and went 0-for-3 in Sunday's loss to the Mariners.
Pereda won the backup catcher job behind regular starter Shea Langeliers. However, he may not play as much as a regular backup as Tyler Soderstrom could also make some starts at catcher. Pereda has a good arm behind the plate but struggled with the bat last season (.481 OPS in 40 plate appearances in the majors).

Athletics' Jhonny Pereda: Lands with A's
Rotowire
The Marlins traded Pereda to the Athletics on Thursday in exchange for cash.
Pereda was DFA'd by Miami on Tuesday, but his move to the A's will ensure that he remains on a 40-man roster for the 2025 campaign. The 28-year-old backstop managed just a .481 OPS in 40 big-league plate appearances last season, though he slashed .302/.407/.444 with 16 RBI in Triple-A. Kyle McCann was designated for assignment in a corresponding move, improving Pereda's chances at making the Athletics' Opening Day roster as Shea Langeliers' backup.

Marlins' Jhonny Pereda: Collects first big-league hits
Rotowire
Pereda went 2-for-4 with an RBI in Thursday's extra-inning loss to the Reds.
Called up Wednesday when Nick Fortes (quad) landed on the IL, Pereda made his first start behind the plate and banged out his first career big-league hits and RBI. The 28-year-old minor-league journeyman will split work with Ali Sanchez while Fortes is sidelined, and Pereda's .310/.418/.458 slash line for Triple-A Jacksonville this season at least offers some hope that he might be able to contribute at the plate.

Rotowire
The Marlins recalled Pereda from Triple-A Jacksonville on Wednesday.

During his previous stints with the Marlins, Sanchez appeared in just five games and went hitless in five at-bats.
