The Milwaukee Brewers have one of the most intriguing starting pitchers in Major League Baseball this offseason.
Freddy Peralta is a superstar. He had a 2.70 ERA and 204-to-66 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 176 2/3 innings pitched across 33 starts. That’s ace-level pitching. In some seasons, that could’ve even won a Cy Young Award, but unfortunately for him, Paul Skenes had a historic season for the Pittsburgh Pirates.

On top of all of this, Peralta is cheap as he will be making just $8 million in 2026. He’s a no-brainer of a player to keep. But if the Brewers don’t think they can afford a long-term deal with him after that, a deal would make sense if the Brewers get blown away. If not, Milwaukee could easily move him ahead of the trade deadline.
The winter meetings are in full swing right now and Todd Rosiak of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel gave a brief update on Peralta on Monday.
