Peralta is entering the final year of his contract, which has placed his name in trade discussions throughout the offseason. Across eight seasons with the Milwaukee Brewers, he has made 162 starts while posting a 3.59 ERA and a 1.13 WHIP.
He was voted to the All-Star Game in 2025 for the second time in his career and also finished fifth in Cy Young Award voting. Peralta’s 17 wins led all of baseball, as he helped guide the Brewers to a division title and 97 regular-season wins.
Joel Sherman has more information on a potential return, though the deal is not finalized at this time.
