2026 Fantasy Outlook
The Brewers' Opening Day starter for the second season in a row, Peralta enjoyed a career year in 2025, leading the NL in wins with 17. He shaved almost a full run off his ERA, lowering it to 2.70 last season. As good as Peralta was, the main differences from past years were a low BABIP (.243, career .264) and a high strand rate (85.5 LOB%). Luck was on his side, but the right-hander also had whiff rates of 35 percent or higher on three of his four pitches. He has now reached 30 starts in each of the last three years, averaging over 200 Ks per season in that span. Peralta is heading into the final year of his deal with an $8 million salary, and the Brewers cashed in on that affordable contract by trading him to the Mets. New York's defense is a step down from Milwaukee, but Citi Field has a similar park factor to American Family Field, so Peralta is well positioned for another elite season in 2026. Read Past Outlooks
