Peralta allows five runs, two homers in loss

Freddy Peralta

TB Starting Pitcher #51

Player Stats

Freddy Peralta allowed five earned runs over seven innings while striking out six, picking up the loss on Friday against the Orioles.

Peralta got off to a bit of a rough start in this one. After allowing back-to-back hits to lead off the inning, one of which was an RBI single by Pete Alonso to score Jackson Holliday from second, he then walked Gunnar Henderson to put runners on first and second with no outs. He was fortunate enough to get out of the inning thanks to a double play ball by Samuel Basallo, but in the top of the second inning he would surrender a leadoff homer to Dylan Beavers to cut the Rays’ lead to 3-2. Peralta wouldn’t allow a run over the next two innings, but a sacrifice fly by Jackson Holliday in the fifth inning followed by a two-run homer by Pete Alonso put the O’s back on top 5-3. Peralta wouldn’t allow another run over his last two innings of work, but the Orioles got the best of him after managing just two runs against him when they faced off last week. Peralta’s next start is set for Wednesday on the road against the Tigers.

Freddy Peralta

TB Starting Pitcher #51

Freddy Peralta pitched well in a losing effort against the Orioles on Sunday afternoon, allowing two runs on one hit over 4 2/3 innings.

Peralta also walked three batters in the contest while recording a pair of strikeouts. He hadn’t allowed a run when he was pulled with two men on and two outs in the fifth inning, only to watch Garrett Cleavinger come on to allow a pair of hits and both of those runners to score. Peralta got 13 whiffs on 76 pitches on the afternoon, registering a CSW of 24 percent. He’ll look to improve upon his disappointing 5.27 ERA and 1.48 WHIP when he squares off against these same Orioles in Baltimore on Friday.

Freddy Peralta allowed three runs in six innings and got a no-decision in the Rays’ 10-6 victory over the Athletics on Monday.

Peralta gave up six hits, walked one and struck out five. It was a solid rebound start after he allowed seven runs to the Rockies at Coors Field in his Rays debut. The Rays haven’t totally fixed Peralta quite yet, but this was certainly a step in the right direction. Peralta is lined up to face the Orioles at home on Sunday.
Juan Soto

NYM Left Fielder #22

ESPN’s Jorge Castillo reported that Freddy Peralta “called a meeting earlier this season for franchise cornerstones Juan Soto and Francisco Lindor to clear the air.”

After the Mets’ flurry of moves in the offseason, there was plenty of speculation that the relationship between Soto and Lindor was fractured. This would seem to give those rumors a little bit more credence. Castillo mentioned that “tension” was lingering, so sources mentioned “that Peralta in June arranged for the two stars to vent and work through their disconnect.” Peralta and Lindor have confirmed that the meeting occurred, but Castillo reports that “Soto denied such a meeting happened.” The last part is not the best indicator that things have improved, but if Peralta could have helped make that relationship more palatable, it would potentially be his lasting legacy as a member of the 2026 Mets.

Freddy Peralta allowed seven runs with three strikeouts over 3 2/3 innings in a no-decision against the Rockies on Tuesday.

Peralta’s Rays debut didn’t go quite as he’d hoped, drawing a road matchup in Colorado. He gave up a run on two hits in the first inning, then ran into more trouble in the third. Peralta opened the inning with three straight hits that drove in a run and put two runners on for Mickey Moniak, who took him deep for a three-run blast. Willy Castro would add a two-run homer in the fourth. Peralta’s day would be done with two outs in the fourth inning at 71 pitches. He struck out three. The 30-year-old right-hander sees his ERA balloon to 5.37 with a 1.52 WHIP and 116/49 K/BB ratio across 117 1/3 innings. Still, we should give the Rays the benefit of the doubt in their ability to get Peralta right and chalk this one up to Coors Field. He’ll look to bounce back against the A’s in Sacramento, another hitter-friendly environment.

Freddy Peralta will make his Rays debut on Tuesday against the Rockies.

It’s not exactly a favorable spot for Peralta to starting turning things around, but he delivered a memorable performance at Coors Field during his big-league debut back in 2018. The 30-year-old righty came over to Tampa for a trio of prospects over the weekend after struggling mightily in his Mets debut. He’ll take over Shane McClanahan’s spot in the rotation for now.
Freddy Peralta

TB Starting Pitcher #51

Rays acquired RHP Freddy Peralta from the Mets for OF Aidan Smith, RHP Gary Gill Hill and INF Émilien Pitre.

This is certainly one of the best-case scenarios for those rostering Peralta, as he’ll get to try to turn things around in a very good situation for pitchers in Tampa Bay. A 17-game winner in Milwaukee last year, Peralta is just 5-9 with a 4.99 ERA in 22 starts this year. His elevated .313 BABIP seems rather fluky, given that he’s remained pretty good at limiting hard contract. However, it is a significant concern that his strikeout rate has dropped from 28 percent to 22 percent. The Rays will plug him into Shane McClanahan’s rotation spot for now and probably start him at some point against the Rockies in the series starting Monday. Eventually, Ian Seymour could be bumped back to the pen once McClanahan comes off the IL.

Will Sammon of The Athletic reports that the Rays have agreed to acquire right-hander Freddy Peralta from the Mets.

Joel Sherman of the New York Post adds that the Mets will receive three players back in return, though who those players are is not yet known. Expect the details to emerge throughout the afternoon. The Mets had been asking for a top-100 prospect “and more” in conversations earlier in the week. Stay tuned, as the hot stove is currently on fire as Monday’s trade deadline approaches.

The New York Post’s Joel Sherman reports the Mets are scratching Freddy Peralta from Friday’s start.

The Athletic’s Will Sammon and Ken Rosenthal reported earlier today that the Mets are asking teams for a top-100 prospect “and more” in their early conversations with teams about Freddy Peralta. It appears they’re close enough on terms with a team to consider scratching Peralta to make sure he can turn up to a new team injury-free. It would seem likely that a rested Kodai Senga will shoulder most of the load in a bullpen game tonight.

The Athletic’s Will Sammon and Ken Rosenthal report the Mets are asking teams for a top-100 prospect “and more” in their early conversations with teams about Freddy Peralta.

It would certainly seem like a stretch that the Mets will get anything like what they gave up to get Peralta, though perhaps desperation will take the reins at the deadline after some other dominoes fall. Peralta is 5-9 with a 4.99 ERA and 113 strikeouts in 113 2/3 innings for the Mets this year, but other teams seem to believe they can fix him. The Cubs, Braves, Rays, and Phillies are among the clubs showing strong interest in Peralta per The Athletic reporters.

ESPN’s Jeff Passan reports that “Chicago lines up very nicely with the Mets” as the Mets look to trade RHPs Freddy Peralta and Clay Holmes.

Peralta and Holmes are almost assuredly being dealt this week, and the Cubs are looking to add starting pitching. As Passan notes, the Cubs also have “plenty of bats available” that could interest the Mets, like Matt Shaw and Pedro Ramirez in the big leagues, or Owen Ayers and Jefferson Rojas in the minors. It remains to be seen if the teams can make anything work, but the pieces seem to be there.

Dodgers’ manager Dave Roberts confirmed Sunday that Eric Lauer has been shifted back to a long relief role.

With Tyler Glasnow back and Shohei Ohtani nearing a return as well, there simply isn’t room to keep the 31-year-old southpaw in the club’s six-man rotation. He’ll be available out of the bullpen beginning on Tuesday.

Jac Caglianone was a late scratch from the Royals’ lineup on Sunday due to renewed ankle soreness.

It’s an issue that has been nagging at Caglianone for a while now and the same injury that caused him to miss Thursday’s game after making an early exit on Wednesday. It’s possible that if it continues to linger it could require a trip to the injured list.

Teel has been shelved since the end of July due to a high ankle sprain. He should only need a couple of games there to get his timing back and could be an option to rejoin the White Sox at some point next weekend barring any setbacks.

Diamondbacks designated RHP Zack Littell for assignment.

With Drey Jameson returning from the injured list on Sunday, the Diamondbacks needed to free up a spot on their active roster and Littell drew the short straw. The 30-year-old hurler posted a 7.50 ERA, 2.08 WHIP and a 3/4 K/BB ratio over 12 innings in three appearances with the Diamondbacks.

Félix Bautista (shoulder) struggled in his first minor league rehab appearance at Double-A Chesapeake on Sunday, recording only one out.

The 31-year-old hurler faced five batters in the ballgame — allowing a hit and three walks in the process. He threw just 10 of his 22 pitches for strikes while maxing out at 97-mph on the radar gun. It’s going to take some time to shake off the rust following Tommy John surgery, so expect inconsistency upon his return.
