Freddy Peralta is in the last guaranteed season of his contract, with a club option for 2026. He has expressed interest in a long-term deal with the Brewers, but negotiations have been stagnant. Since becoming a starting pitcher, he has consistently performed well, pitching over 600 innings with a 3.40 ERA and ranking as one of the top pitchers in the league without injury concerns. However, trade rumors loom around him as the team decides its future direction.
