Dodgers will really like Jose Peraza

In case you missed it, the Braves made big news last week when they traded a starting pitcher, two relievers and a top prospect. That prospect, Jose Peraza, was highly regarded by the Braves organization (and fans) and was believed to be a marquee component of the SunTrust Park squad.
So of course Peraza homers in one of his first outing for a Dodgers club. See the video for yourself below.

Maybe Hector Olivera, whom Braves officials ultimately traded for, will hit a grand slam in his first outing.
