FAU’s lefty bat with real pop and run-producing upside
In the 2026 season, Michael Perazza emerged as a steady middle-of-the-order threat for Florida Atlantic, hitting .315 with 4 home runs, 31 RBI, 7 doubles, 3 triples, and 21 multi-hit games while making 49 starts in left field[2][1]. He also ranked second on the team with 21 multi-hit games and led the Owls with 3 home runs by late March, showing a compact left-handed swing, gap power, and enough athleticism to handle an everyday corner-outfield role[1][3]. The feel-good nugget: he transferred in from West Virginia and quickly looked comfortable, which usually says a lot about fit and competitiveness[1].
