Houston’s do-it-all bat with pop, speed, and a cannon from the outfield
In the 2026 season, Xavier Perez was Houston’s most complete offensive spark, hitting .288 with 9 home runs, 36 RBI, 40 runs, and 14 stolen bases in 54 games, while also tying for the national lead with 7 outfield assists. He stands out for producing loud contact, running well enough to pressure defenses, and bringing real arm strength in right field. The vibe: productive, versatile, and a little nasty in the best baseball way—exactly the kind of player who can help a team win in multiple phases.
