Wilbert Perez brings proven SWAC power, contact, and run production
Wilbert Perez has the kind of 2025 résumé that makes coaches sit up straighter: he hit .324 with 8 home runs, 48 RBI, 20 doubles, a .415 on-base percentage, and a .945 OPS in 49 starts, and he was named Preseason First Team All-SWAC for 2026[1][2]. The big differentiator is his middle-of-the-order force profile with real extra-base pop, plus enough strike-zone control to stay dangerous even when pitchers work around him[1][2]. He also adds athletic value on the bases, which makes him a clean fit for a team needing a tough, production-first infielder[1].
