• Mets' Freddy Peralta: Shipped to Queens

  Rotowire Jan 21, 2026

  The Brewers traded Peralta to the Mets on Wednesday alongside Tobias Myers in exchange for Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports. The Mets get the rotation help they've been seeking by adding Peralta, who finished the 2025 regular season with a career-best 2.70 ERA and 1.08 WHIP while collecting 204 strikeouts in 176.2 innings. The 29-year-old righty figures to slot into the front end of New York's rotation alongside Nolan McLean and Sean Manaea and will be a candidate to start Opening Day.

• Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Option for 2026 picked up

  Rotowire Nov 3, 2025

  The Brewers exercised Peralta's $8 million option for 2026 on Monday, Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. The Brewers picking up Peralta's option was a given. The big question is whether they will trade their ace this winter, as he's slated to reach free agency next offseason and highly unlikely to ink a long-term deal with Milwaukee. Peralta won a career-high 17 games while posting a 2.70 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 204:66 K:BB over 176.2 innings covering 33 regular-season starts for the Brewers in 2025.

• Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Hit with Game 2 loss

  Rotowire Oct 15, 2025

  Peralta took the loss in Game 2 of the NLCS against the Dodgers on Tuesday, allowing three earned runs on five hits and a walk while striking out four batters over 5.2 innings. The 29-year-old righty took the mound in the second inning with a 1-0 lead but watched it quickly disappear courtesy of a solo home run from Teoscar Hernandez and an RBI double from Andy Pages. Peralta did a good job of settling in afterward and kept the game close for the next several innings, but he was eventually pulled after coughing up another solo shot to Max Muncy in the sixth. If Milwaukee can rally and take a couple of games from the Dodgers on the road, Peralta may be able to take the mound again in Game 6 or 7.

• Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Takes loss in Game 4

  Rotowire Oct 10, 2025

  Peralta took the loss to the Cubs on Thursday in Game 4 of the National League Division Series. He allowed three runs on three hits and two walks while striking out six over four innings. Ian Happ did all of the damage against Peralta with one swing of the bat in the first inning. Peralta threw 55 of his 84 pitches for strikes, generating 15 swings-and-misses in total. He hasn't quite performed up to his usual standards this postseason (4.66 ERA), and the Brewers are now looking at another bullpen game in Saturday's decisive Game 5 after getting out to a 2-0 series lead initially.

• Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Claims Game 1 win

  Rotowire Oct 4, 2025

  Peralta earned the win during Saturday's Game 1 of the NLDS against the Cubs after allowing two earned runs on four hits and three walks while striking out nine batters over 5.2 innings. It seemed like Peralta was going to be in for a long day after he allowed Michael Busch to hit a leadoff home run on Peralta's fourth pitch of the game, but the 29-year-old righty quickly settled in afterward. Nine runs of support from the Brewers' offense after two innings allowed him to work under minimal pressure for the rest of the afternoon, and he did so while tying a franchise record for strikeouts in a postseason game. If the Cubs take one of the next two games from Milwaukee, Peralta will surely be in the conversation to start Thursday in Game 4.

• Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Set for light workload Sunday

  Rotowire Sep 27, 2025

  Brewers manager Pat Murphy suggested Friday that Peralta will be on a limited pitch count in his final start of the regular season Sunday versus the Reds, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Heading into play Saturday, the Brewers sit one game ahead of the Phillies for the best record in baseball and home-field advantage throughout the playoffs. Even if the Brewers drop Saturday's game against Cincinnati to leave something at stake Sunday, Murphy seems inclined to prioritize easing up on Peralta's workload heading into the NLDS rather than counting on the team's ace to make a normal start. Peralta has tossed 174.2 innings through his first 32 starts, narrowly surpassing the career-high 173.2 he tossed in 2024.

• Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Hurls six one-hit, scoreless frames

  Rotowire Aug 19, 2025

  Peralta (15-5) earned the win over the Cubs on Monday, allowing one hit and issuing three walks while striking out six batters over six scoreless innings. Peralta was dominant in what was slated to be the first game of a doubleheader (Game 2 ended up being postponed), cruising through six scoreless frames on 95 pitches. The only hit he allowed was a first-inning single by Seiya Suzuki, and all three free passes he issued came to consecutive batters in the fourth. Peralta recovered from that wild stretch to retire the final eight batters he faced, finishing with his second straight scoreless quality start. The right-hander is in the midst of a career-best campaign -- he leads MLB with a career-high 15 victories and ranks 15th with 154 punchouts over 142.2 frames. Peralta's 2.78 ERA is on pace for a career-best mark.

• Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Pushed back to Tuesday

  Rotowire Aug 10, 2025

  Peralta will make his next start Tuesday versus the Pirates, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. Peralta was expected to toe the rubber in Monday's series opener with Pittsburgh, but he'll now be pushed back a day. The right-hander has labored through his last couple starts, but he still owns a 3.03 ERA over 24 outings this season, and he will now throw opposite Pirates phenom Paul Skenes on Tuesday. Jose Quintana will draw the start against Pittsburgh on Monday.

• Brewers' Freddy Peralta: Sharp in 13th win

  Rotowire Aug 6, 2025

  Peralta (13-5) picked up the win in Tuesday's 7-2 victory over Atlanta, allowing one run on four hits and three walks over five innings. He struck out seven. The right-hander racked up 31 called or swinging strikes among his 108 pitches (63 total strikes) in a typically dominant, if not exactly efficient, performance. Peralta could push himself into NL Cy Young contention with a strong finish to the season -- his 13 wins are tied for the major-league lead with Garrett Crochet, and Peralta boasts top-10 marks in the Senior Circuit in ERA (3.03), WHIP (1.14) and strikeouts (141). His chances of collecting win No. 14 look good in his next start, which lines up to come at home early next week against the Pirates.

  Rotowire Jul 25, 2025

Peralta gave up a solo homer in the third inning but was otherwise sharp, generating 17 swinging strikes on 98 pitches.

  Rotowire Jul 20, 2025

  Peralta (12-4) allowed four runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four over five innings to earn the win over the Dodgers on Saturday. Peralta stumbled, allowing all four runs in the third inning, but he didn't squander the second lead the Brewers built. This ended his stretch of three straight quality starts, but he's impressively won seven outings in a row, posting a 3.18 ERA and 44:9 K:BB over that span. On the year, he's been even better, maintaining a 2.85 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 122:40 K:BB through 116.2 innings across 21 starts. The right-hander's next start is projected to be at home in a favorable matchup against the Marlins.
