The New York Yankees, as a unit, have failed to do well this season. They have been in highlights for all the wrong reasons, ranging from injuries to poor results. And the injury to captain Aaron Judge added to their struggles, as the team failed to win enough games and is languishing in the last place in the AL East. It all led to immense disappointment among fans. Though the situation improved as Judge made his MLB comeback, another update has made the fans angry.
Given the squad’s strength and out-of-form players, fans wanted young players to join the team. It eventually happened after Oswald Peraza joined the team. But according to the latest update, Peraza’s time in MLB has come to another halt with a surprising Yankees move.

His performance in the MLB this season has been below par. In 19 games, he has scored only 5 runs and is averaging 0.173. And the situation did not improve after he joined the squad in place of the injured Josh Donaldson.

It possibly made the Yankees send him back to the minors after the $360 million Judge returned. But the fans think otherwise.
Fans Criticize as Oswald Peraza Moved Back to AAA
Fans always demanded that Peraza should be in the MLB squad. The same happened, but the latest update has changed the scenario again. As he goes back to AAA, fans are unhappy.
Though Aaron Judge’s comeback is the reason behind it, fans are still against it and have shared their thoughts in the following tweets.
They’re going to ruin this kid just like Frazier and Andujar. It’s sickening.

Terrible…
Facing bad AAA pitching won’t help him. Peraza needs to see MLB pitching. He’ll either sink or swim. Why prolong finding out…

Hate to see it

I don’t understand the disrespect for this guy

Few fans feel that it might be a temporary move.
I wouldn't worry about it. This is probably a temporary move as the Yankees prepare to do some roster shuffling before the trade deadline.

One of Judge and Stanton will be DH everyday now, Gleyber at 2B is the 2nd best hitter on the team and they’re not gonna bench volpe. And they never gave Peraza any playing time at 3B. They’re going to see if DJ can turn it around, money talks.
