2026 Fantasy Outlook
The Brewers' Opening Day starter for the second season in a row, Peralta enjoyed a career year in 2025, leading the NL in wins with 17. He shaved almost a full run off his ERA, lowering it to 2.70 last season. As good as Peralta was, the main differences from past years were a low BABIP (.243, career .264) and a high strand rate (85.5 LOB%). Luck was on his side, but the right-hander also had whiff rates of 35 percent or higher on three of his four pitches. He has now reached 30 starts in each of the last three years, averaging over 200 Ks per season in that span. Peralta is heading into the final year of his deal with an $8 million salary, and the Brewers cashed in on that affordable contract by trading him to the Mets. New York's defense is a step down from Milwaukee, but Citi Field has a similar park factor to American Family Field, so Peralta is well positioned for another elite season in 2026. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a five-year, $15.7 million contract extension with the Brewers in February of 2020. Brewers exercised $8 million team option for 2025 in November of 2024. Brewers exercised $8 million team option for 2026 in November of 2025. Traded to the Mets in January of 2026. Traded to the Rays in August of 2026.
Submits quality start Monday
Peralta allowed three runs on six hits and a walk while striking out five over six innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Monday.
Analysis
Peralta was better in this start than in his Rays debut last week, but the offense didn't back him up while he was in the game. It had been two months since Peralta last covered six innings in a start -- he posted a miserable 8.01 ERA over his previous nine starts, six of which were shorter than five frames. On the year, Peralta has a 5.33 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 121:50 K:BB through 123.1 innings over 24 starts between the Rays and the Mets. He's lined up to make his next start at home versus the Orioles.

The right-hander stepped in as Milwaukee's ace in 2024 with Corbin Burnes traded away and Brandon Woodruff recovering from shoulder surgery, but Peralta wasn't able to fully pitch up to ace level. He reached 200 strikeouts for the second straight season, and his 3.68 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in a career-high 32 starts are similar to his numbers from the previous couple seasons. Peralta improved slightly in run prevention, but a 4.16 FIP indicates the Brewers' strong defense likely played a role in that, while most of his other stats regressed slightly. Peralta flashed his ceiling in 2021 with a 2.81 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 12.2 K/9, but he's been unable to replicate that production over the past few years. He's still been a high-level starter both in real life and for fantasy given the strikeout numbers and overall effectiveness, but at this point he doesn't seem likely to return to that 2021 level as he seems to have settled in as more of a No. 2/3 starter.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Brewers weren't involved
According to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com, the Brewers didn't show much interest in acquiring Peralta at the trade deadline.
Analysis
The right-hander spent the first eight seasons of his MLB career in Milwaukee before being traded to the Mets during the offseason, and the Brewers apparently didn't spend much time considering a reunion. Peralta never found his footing in Queens with a 4.99 ERA and 1.48 WHIP in 22 starts, and he was then traded to Tampa Bay ahead of Monday's deadline. The 30-year-old's struggles have continued with the Rays, as he surrendered seven runs across 3.2 innings during his team debut Tuesday. Peralta will become a free agent after the season, and a strong performance down the stretch could go a long way toward recapturing some of his market value.
