Wily Peralta is a gutsy young righthander in the Brewer system who should probably be considered the team's best pitching prospect today. Currently a two-pitch flinger who flashes an occasionally plus curve, Peralta looked awfully good at AA Huntsville in 2011, going 9-7, 3.46 with a 1.29 WHIP.

He looked even better when moved up to AAA Nashville. As a Sound, he went 2-0 in five starts with a shimmering 2.03 ERA and 40 strikeouts in only 31 innings of work. While he's still in the habit of working his way deep into counts with even iffy hitters, he's also still young ,and has been improving in this department lately. He should be pushing for MLB work in 2012, and if he arrives, he's going to embarrass a lot of lesser hitters at the highest level.
