Brewers' Ace Freddy Peralta Likely to Be Traded After Career-Best Season

Freddy Peralta of the Milwaukee Brewers is considered the most likely player to be traded this offseason, despite coming off a career-best 2025 season. He led the NL with 17 wins, posted a 2.70 ERA, and recorded 204 strikeouts in 33 starts. Brewers' President Matt Arnold acknowledged 'a ton of interest' in Peralta, noting the team's history of trading players with one year of club control remaining. Peralta, an ace, represents a top short-term rental option for teams seeking starting pitching.
