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, $15.6 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.
Fades late in Saturday's loss
Peralta (1-2) took the loss Saturday as the Mets fell 4-2 to the Cubs, giving up three runs on three hits and two walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out three.
Analysis
The right-hander was locked in a 1-1 pitchers' duel with Jameson Taillon through five innings, but Peralta ran out of gas with two outs in the sixth, walking two straight batters before getting lifted after 93 pitches (54 strikes) and watching both come around to score. Peralta has allowed three runs or fewer in four straight outings but hasn't been rewarded with a win in any of them as the Mets' offense continues to struggle. He'll take a 4.05 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 28:10 K:BB over 26.2 innings into his next start, which is scheduled to come at home next weekend against the Rockies.

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
Seeking lengthy extension
Peralta wants his new contract to be "seven or eight years," according to Jon Heyman of The New York Post.
Analysis
The Mets paid a steep price to acquire Peralta from the Brewers in the offseason, but it'd be surprising if they were willing to sign Peralta to such an extension. The Mets haven't signed a pitcher to a contract longer than three years since president of baseball operations David Stearns was hired in 2023. Peralta will be 30 years old in June, so signing him to such a long deal would carry considerable risk as well.
