Freddy Peralta Embraces Mets Role, Delays Extension Talks After Trade

New Mets ace Freddy Peralta, acquired from the Brewers, is excited to join the team and embrace the New York market. While the Mets are exploring a long-term extension, Peralta stated he wants to settle in with his new teammates and the organization before discussing a new deal, as he has one year left before free agency. The two-time All-Star posted a 2.70 ERA with 204 strikeouts in 176.2 innings last season, marking his third consecutive year with 30+ starts. He remains undecided on participating in the WBC due to personal reasons.
