Peralta Tests PitchCalls as Mets Pivot Toward Trade Value

Mets right-hander Freddy Peralta, a top trade chip, tried calling some of his own pitches with PitchCom for the first time this season in a 4 2/3-inning start against Atlanta. Despite a subpar overall line, he leaned on a broader mix (including a season-high number of sweepers) and averaged 95.1 mph on his fastball, signaling improved form that could boost his value ahead of the Aug. 3 deadline. With an $8 million salary and a strong track record, Peralta remains attractive to contenders (Cubs, Padres, Blue Jays, Rays, among others) as New York looks to sellers amid a difficult season.

Mets Pivot to Peralta as Bichette Signs, Offseason Shifts Course

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.

Mets Bet on Peralta’s acclimation as Benge eyes a spring path

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.

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).

Mets pair up with Brewers for Freddy Peralta to stabilize rotation

The New York Mets acquired ace Freddy Peralta and right-hander Tobias Myers from the Milwaukee Brewers in exchange for pitching prospect Brandon Sproat and minor leaguer Jett Williams. 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.

Mets land Freddy Peralta to anchor their rotation as Brewers pivot with two top prospects

The Mets acquire right-hander Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers from Milwaukee in exchange for shortstop/center fielder Jett Williams and right-hander Brandon Sproat. Peralta, a durable above-average starter, should slot as the Mets’ likely No. 1 starter to open the season, with Myers providing additional rotation depth. 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.
