Geraldo Perdomo, the shortstop for the Arizona Diamondbacks, has been named to the MLB Network's top 100 players list ahead of the 2026 season. This is a significant achievement, as Perdomo was not on the list last year. The announcement was made on Monday Night, revealing spots 40-21, and Perdomo came in at No. 24. He outperformed notable players like Texas Rangers shortstop Corey Seager (27) and Philadelphia Phillies' Trea Turner (25).
Perdomo's impressive 2025 season contributed to his success. He slashed .290/.389/.462, hit a career-high 20 home runs, and drove in 100 RBIs. These achievements earned him the Silver Slugger award and a fourth-place finish in the National League MVP voting.
The 2026 World Baseball Classic will see Perdomo and his D-backs teammate Ketel Marte representing the Dominican Republic. However, other D-backs players like Marte and Corbin Carroll have yet to be included in the top 100 list. The remaining spots, 20-11, will be revealed on Wednesday at 6 p.m., and the top 10 will be announced on Thursday at the same time.
This recognition highlights Perdomo's potential and impact on the sport, leaving fans eager to see his continued development and performance.
