Pérez was the much less heralded prospect the White Sox received from the Brewers on July 26, as part of the Joakim Soria deal. However, as often turns out to be the case, his career may eventually surpass of the higher-touted prospect — in this case, southpaw Kodi Medeiros. Of course, only time will tell, but Pérez certainly had a nifty season this year in his native Dominican Republic.
