Left-hander Luis Peralta was designated for assignment by the Cubs and went unclaimed on waivers, leading to his outright assignment to Triple-A Iowa. The 25-year-old has struggled in his MLB career, posting a 6.03 ERA over 37 games, with a notable decline in performance in 2025. Despite a strong strikeout rate, he has faced severe control issues, walking 24.8% of batters this season in Triple-A. Peralta aims to regain his command with the Cubs’ affiliate in Des Moines.
