Lynn Worthy at The Star talks to Salvy about his great season with the bat:
Perez, who has always maintained that defense dominates his daily focus, has become more aware of the opposing pitcher’s tendencies and has taken the time to develop a plan of attack at the plate. Perez, who won his third Silver Slugger last year for the shortened season, has credited the offseason work he has done with hitting guru and Royals special assignment hitting coach Mike Tosar and listening to the advice of major-league hitting coach Terry Bradshaw.
“(Bradshaw) told me one good point, try to use all fields, right field, the gaps,” Perez said.
