Scouting Report: Andy Peralta
Chicago Cubs | P
Overall
Summary
Freddy Peralta, RHP for the New York Mets, has posted a 3.12 ERA with 43 strikeouts across 8 starts this season. Recently delivered a quality 5-inning scoreless outing against the Rockies on May 7, 2026, earning his first win since Opening Day. However, his strikeout rate (8.9 K/9) is significantly down from his 2025 breakout season with the Brewers (2.70 ERA, 204 K). The Mets are struggling with a 14-23 record, and trade rumors suggest the Cubs and other teams are interested in acquiring Peralta before the June 1st deadline. Peralta has shown mixed results, allowing 3+ earned runs in 4 of 8 starts, though he has demonstrated ability to make mid-game adjustments and complete quality innings.
Strengths
- Recent quality start with 5 scoreless innings vs Rockies
