Peralta elected free agency Friday after opting out of his minor-league contract with the Cubs.
Peralta inked a minor-league deal with the Cubs in late February but was brought along slowly as he recovered from the flexor tendon surgery he underwent last October on his left elbow. He slashed just .217/.341/.348 with two home runs in 20 games with Triple-A Iowa and hit only .259/.294/.381 over 422 plate appearances with the Dodgers in the majors in 2023. The 36-year-old will look to latch on with another organization seeking outfield depth.
