"Cease may ultimately become a difference maker for the Blue Jays, but both Cabrera and Peralta are no slouches either if they happen to land with the Yankees. Cabrera is coming off a strong 2025 campaign with the Marlins in which he posted career highs in wins (8), starts (26), innings pitched (137.2), strikeouts (150) and strikeouts-to-walk ratio (3.13). In addition, he ranked in the 87th percentile in fastball velocity at 96.9 mph and in the 74th percentile and above in chase rate, whiff rate, strikeout rate and ground ball rate, according to Baseball Savant."
"Sources have indicated that the Yankees now have their eyes on Miami Marlins right-handed pitcher Edward Cabrera in a potential trade, in addition to continuing their ongoing discussions with the Milwaukee Brewers for ace Freddy Peralta, according to The Athletic. As for Peralta, he was one of the big reasons why the Brewers finished atop the entire league with a 97-65 record as he compiled an NL-leading 17 wins to go along with a stellar 2.70 ERA, 1.08 WHIP, along with 204 strikeouts in just 176.2 innings pitched over 33 starts."
The Toronto Blue Jays made notable offseason upgrades by adding Dylan Cease, Tyler Rogers, Cody Ponce and Kazuma Okamoto ahead of 2026. The New York Yankees are targeting Miami Marlins right-hander Edward Cabrera and continue talks with the Milwaukee Brewers about Freddy Peralta. Cabrera posted career highs in 2025 with eight wins, 26 starts, 137.2 innings and 150 strikeouts while ranking highly in fastball velocity and several pitch-quality metrics. Peralta led the NL with 17 wins and delivered a 2.70 ERA, 1.08 WHIP and 204 strikeouts across 176.2 innings, anchoring the Brewers’ 97-65 season. These potential moves increase AL East competition.
