"The Brewers have been discussing a Peralta trade all offseason, but a deal has yet to get done. Along with the Dodgers, the Atlanta Braves, Boston Red Sox, New York Mets and New York Yankees have been linked to the 29-year-old. Peralta has been one of the better starting pitchers in the National League for several years and is coming off his best season yet."
"The right-hander went 17-6 with a 2.70 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 10.4 strikeouts per nine in 176.2 innings pitched across 33 starts last year. Peralta is set to make $8 million this year before reaching free agency after the 2026 season. The Brewers have shopped him as they don't feel confident in their ability to reach a contract extension. The Brewers are reportedly asking for a Major League-ready starting pitcher in return, making it a high cost to acquire one year of Peralta."
The Los Angeles Dodgers upgraded their bullpen by signing Edwin Díaz and strengthened the outfield by agreeing to terms with Kyle Tucker. The bench received depth with Andy Ibañez, and the team is expected to pursue Kike Hernández again in spring. The starting rotation remains unchanged so far, but the Dodgers are among several clubs expressing interest in Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta. Peralta posted a 17-6 record with a 2.70 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 10.4 K/9 across 176.2 innings last year and is owed $8 million in 2026 before reaching free agency. The Brewers seek a Major League-ready starting pitcher in return, making an acquisition costly for one season of control.
