The Mets’ winter focused on upgrading the rotation with Freddy Peralta via a trade that cost top prospects (Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams) while pursuing big-bat upgrades, including a near-miss on Kyle Tucker and a finalized deal for Bo Bichette (3 years, $126M with two opt-outs). Rival moves—Weathers to the Yankees, Suarez to the Red Sox, Oviedo to Boston—forced further pivots as the team weighed longer-term rotation contracts and depth options (Chandler, Ashcraft) amid a fast-changing market and sliding-door decisions.
Freddy Peralta has joined the Mets with extension talks likely taking a back seat while he acclimates, and the club remains hopeful but private on a future deal; Carson Benge is still in the mix for a spring roster spot at left field amid ongoing roster reshuffling, while Kodai Senga is expected to be in the rotation. If healthy, the Mets could run a six-man rotation (Peralta, Senga, Manaea, Peterson, Holmes, McLean) and lean on defensive depth with Soto in right, Robert in center, and Taylor in left as Benge develops.
New York Mets acquire Freddy Peralta from Milwaukee, giving them a true ace to fuel a win-now push while keeping enough depth to flip pieces like David Peterson for other needs.

The Mets acquire Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers from Milwaukee in exchange for top-100 prospects Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat (with Williams and Sproat heading to Milwaukee and Myers joining New York). Peralta strengthens New York’s rotation as a high-strikeout No. 2 starter, while Williams provides speed and multi-position defense and Sproat looks like a durable mid-rotation arm for Milwaukee.

The Mets acquired right-hander Freddy Peralta from the Brewers, giving up two top prospects (Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat) and Tobias Myers to fortify the top of their rotation, while the Yankees re-signed Cody Bellinger to a five-year, $162.5 million deal to stabilize their outfield. The Peralta deal shifts the rotation market, as teams consider remaining front‑line arms like Framber Valdez and Zac Gallen and plot additional upgrades.

Peralta, 29, went 17-6 with a 2.70 ERA last season, led the NL in wins and earned his second All-Star nod; he earns $8 million this year and can become a free agent after the World Series. Myers, a 27-year-old, was 9-6 with a 3.00 ERA as a rookie in 2024 and posted a 3.55 ERA in 22 appearances last year. The deal strengthens a Mets rotation that faltered in 2025 and follows recent moves, including adding Bo Bichette and Luis Robert Jr.

Milwaukee receives Williams and Sproat—two prospects who could factor into the majors and help replenish the farm—in a Burnes-style swap that strengthens Milwaukee’s long-term outlook despite losing Peralta.

Extensions and CBT/payroll implications loom as both clubs head toward spring training.
