Analysis:
The 27-year-old has been sidelined since Sept. 5 due to back troubles, but it sounds like he has a chance to play in this weekend's series in Colorado. A June 1 callup to the big club, Peralta has hit .293/.326/.461 in 80 games with Arizona this season, which is all the more impressive when considering he was playing independent league ball a year ago.
