Freddy Peralta Fantasy Stats

With interest in right-hander Freddy Peralta so significant this offseason, the Milwaukee Brewers are now considering "cracking the door open" for trade discussions, a person briefed on the team's situation told The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal. If the Brewers get a strong enough offer for Peralta, they think the presence of veteran Brandon Woodruff and their other options will give them enough rotation firepower to contend in the National League Central. Peralta's trade value is considerable since he's 29 and is set to make only $8 million in his final season before free agency. If the Brewers were to trade Peralta, they'd likely be looking for a major-league-ready starting pitcher in return. If Peralta is dealt, Woodruff, Jacob Misiorowski, and Quinn Priester would be the team's top three starters. Candidates to fill out the rotation would be Robert Gasser, Chad Patrick, Logan Henderson, and Tobias Myers.

MLB Network's Jon Morosi mentions the Boston Red Sox as an interesting fit for Milwaukee Brewers two-time All-Star right-hander Freddy Peralta if he is moved in the offseason. "I think [they're] one starting pitcher away from making a real run at this," Morosi said. The Brewers picked up Peralta's $8 million option for the 2026 season, but the 29-year-old will be eligible for free agency following next season, and the BoSox could be an option if they get aggressive on the trade market for a starting pitcher. Milwaukee probably isn't going to be in play to give Peralta a long-term extension following the 2026 season, so it would make sense for them to shop him this offseason or next summer at the trade deadline. Peralta had a fantastic season in 2025 and was one of the best starters in all of baseball, going 17-6 with a 2.70 ERA in 33 starts. His 17 wins, 2.70 ERA, and 176 2/3 innings were all career-highs. UPDATE: Bob Nightengale of USA Today Sports reports that the Brewers "are planning to keep" Peralta.

As expected, the Milwaukee Brewers announced on Monday that they exercised the $8 million option for the 2026 season on right-hander Freddy Peralta. Peralta was one of the best pitchers in baseball for the Brew Crew in 2025, going 17-6 with a 2.70 ERA (3.65 FIP), 1.07 WHIP, and 204:66 K:BB in 176 2/3 innings over his 33 starts. His 17 wins led the league, and it was his third straight season with 200-plus strikeouts. Peralta will be back for his ninth year in Milwaukee in 2026, but he'll be a trade candidate this offseason and next summer, with the Brewers unlikely to sign him to a long-term extension. Peralta was an All-Star for the second time in his career in 2025, and he's had a 3.59 ERA and 1.13 WHIP with a 29.9% strikeout rate and 9.3% walk rate over 931 regular-season innings.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta is expected to be on the trading block this offseason. The Brewers will undoubtedly exercise Peralta's $8 million club option for the 2026 season. That is an extremely cheap deal considering what Peralta has given to the Brewers the last few years. Peralta is set to become a free agent after the 2026 season. That being said, the Brewers could move on from Peralta while they can still get something in return. The Brewers do have a few young controllable starters in Jacob Misiorowski, Chad Patrick, and Quinn Priester. Given the Brewers lack of spending in recent years, Peralta could be on the move with an extension seeming unlikely at the moment. The Brewers haven't been shy about moving on from big name players such as Corbin Burnes, Willy Adames, and Devin Williams. Peralta could be the next big name player leaving Milwaukee.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta will start Game 4 of the National League Division Series on Thursday at Wrigley Field against the division-rival Chicago Cubs, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. Peralta will hope to close out the series with a win to send the Brew Crew to the NL Championship Series this weekend against either the Los Angeles Dodgers or Philadelphia Phillies. The 29-year-old is the right man for the job and pitched well in the Game 1 win in Milwaukee on Saturday against the Cubbies, allowing two runs while punching out nine batters in 5 2/3 innings of work. The Dominican hurler was quietly one of the best pitchers in all of baseball in 2025, going 17-6 with a 2.70 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and 204 K's in 33 starts. Peralta made four starts against Chicago during the regular season, posting a 3-1 record, 3.43 ERA, 1.05 WHIP, and 22:10 K:BB in 21 innings pitched.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta has been named the starting pitcher for Saturday's Game 1 of the NLDS against the Chicago Cubs. This doesn't come as a surprise, but the news is official now. This season, Peralta posted a 2.70 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, and a 204/66 K/BB ratio across 33 starts. The Brewers received a bye in the Wild Card round, so this will be Peralta's first start since September 28. His most recent start against the Chicago Cubs came in mid-August. He tossed six shutout innings, allowing one hit, and striking out six batters. This is going to be a tough challenge for the Cubs hitters.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta tossed six shutout innings on Saturday, allowing just one hit and one walk while racking up eight strikeouts on the way to earning his 16th win of the year in a 7-2 victory over the Blue Jays. That makes four consecutive starts in which the right-hander has not allowed a single run, and he owns a 0.32 ERA, 0.82 WHIP, and 20.6 K-BB% in five August starts. While it's a long shot, the 2x All-Star now has the third-best odds to win the NL Cy Young Award, with a 16-5 record, 2.58 ERA, 1.07 WHIP, and 168 strikeouts in 153 2/3 innings pitched. The 29-year-old will take the mound against the NL East-leading Phillies next week at home in his next start.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta notched a quality start in a 7-2 win over the New York Mets in the first game of a Wednesday doubleheader. Peralta allowed two runs on two hits over six innings while striking out six and walking two to earn the win, improving his record to 9-4 on the year. Overall, Peralta has a 2.91 ERA, 1.09 WHIP, and 104 strikeouts across 99 innings of work on the season. Peralta has been extremely consistent in 2025 as he has only allowed more than three runs in a start once all year. He will look to keep it going in his next start, which will be against the Los Angeles Dodgers on Monday.

ESPN's Kiley McDaniel and Jeff Passan put the chances of Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta being traded this summer at 20 percent. Peralta has been a steady presence in Milwaukee's starting rotation for the last eight years, averaging 140 innings pitched with a 3.49 ERA in the last four seasons. The 29-year-old Dominican hurler currently has a league-high eight wins in 17 starts with a tidy 2.90 ERA (3.90 FIP), 1.13 WHIP and 98:34 K:BB in 93 innings with a career-high 94.9 mph average velocity. He has a very cheap $8 million option for the 2026 season, but with the Brew Crew in the thick of the race in both the National League Central and the NL wild card, it would be a pretty big surprise if he were traded by July 31. Potential teams that could be looking to acquire Peralta include Boston, Houston, Toronto, St. Louis, Arizona, San Diego and Baltimore.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta was solid on Friday, tossing six innings of one-run ball against the St. Louis Cardinals. Peralta earned his sixth win of the season in this one, as the Brewers claimed a 3-2 victory. The 29-year-old allowed just four hits and a walk while striking out six. He has been a steady force for the Brewers, pitching to a 2.60 ERA and 1.13 WHIP while striking out 84 batters over 83 IP. While he isn't an ace, Peralta is very helpful in fantasy as he provides solid ratios and good strikeout numbers while picking up some wins along the way as well. His next start is scheduled for next Thursday in Chicago, where he will have a tough matchup against the Cubs.
