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 allowed one run with six strikeouts over 5 2/3 innings in a no-decision against the Red Sox on Saturday.

Peralta held the Red Sox scoreless through two innings before giving up a run on a pair of doubles in the third. He went on to pitch into the sixth without giving up another run, leaving with one runner on and two outs at 97 pitches. He struck out six. The 30-year-old right-hander will take a 4.56 ERA, 1.33 WHIP, and a 152/60 K/BB ratio across 163 2/3 innings into a start against the Phillies in Philadelphia on Friday.

Freddy Peralta tossed five shutout innings with four strikeouts in a win over the Astros on Sunday.

Peralta was outstanding on Sunday, holding the Astros scoreless through five no-hit innings. He stranded three walks and collected four strikeouts. Peralta had no pressure in this one as he got 11 runs of support before departing at 86 pitches. The 30-year-old right-hander will take a 4.67 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, and a 146/58 K/BB ratio across 158 innings into a start against the Red Sox in Tampa Bay on Saturday.

Freddy Peralta allowed one run in six innings and got the win in the Rays’ 7-1 victory over the Braves on Tuesday.

Peralta gave up five hits, walked one and struck out two. He improved to 8-11 with the win. Peralta has now won his last three starts in a row while allowing only two runs in 18 innings. He’s lined up to face the Astros at home on Sunday.

Freddy Peralta allowed one run in six innings and got the win in the Rays’ 6-2 victory over the Mets on Tuesday.

Peralta gave up three hits, walked none and struck out seven. He improved to 7-11 on the season with the win. Peralta allowed a solo home run in the first inning before settling in and putting up a quality start. He has a 4.62 ERA and 27 strikeouts in 33 1/3 innings over six starts since coming to the Rays at the trade deadline. Peralta has a 4.96 ERA this year. He’s lined up to face the Braves on the road next week.

Freddy Peralta threw six shutout innings in a win over the Tigers on Wednesday.

Peralta allowed just two hits and no walks while striking out four. He posted a 62 percent strike rate with a 30 percent CSW and a 12 percent swinging strike rate on the day. This was easily his best performance as a member of the Rays, and the first time he’s allowed no runs in a start since June 25th. Actually, it’s only the third time he’s allowed no runs in a start all season. As we expected, the Rays continue to have Peralta lean on his changeup more, even to righties, and he had a 31 percent swinging strike rate on the pitch on Tuesday. To righties, he located the pitch far better in the zone, but he focused on chases outside of the zone against lefties. He’ll look to keep it going with a revenge game of sorts against the Mets on Wednesday; although, it’s unclear who would want revenge on whom.

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.

Giants selected the contract of OF Bo Davidson from Triple-A Sacramento.

Let’s have some fun, folks. Davidson, who went undrafted back in 2023, will get his first taste of the majors during the final week of the season after blossoming into one of the most intriguing prospects in San Francisco’s system. He’s in right field and hitting third against the Twins on Monday. The 24-year-old outfielder has been sizzling-hot on the doorstep of the majors for the last couple weeks and ascends to the big leagues after hitting .290/.361/.527 with 29 homers and 20 steals in 125 games in the upper minors this season. He’s the type of intriguing talent that is worth rostering in deeper fantasy leagues with only a handful of games left on the calendar. It wouldn’t be surprising if he made an impact down the home stretch given his fantasy-relevant skillset.

Giants activated INF Marcelo Mayer from the 10-day injured list.

Mayer will make his San Francisco debut during Monday’s series opener against the Twins at Oracle Park. The 23-year-old former top prospect, who came over from the Red Sox in the Erik Miller swap at the trade deadline last month, has been out nursing forearm and foot injuries since late June. He’s talented enough to be an impactful fantasy contributor at some point in the future, but it simply hasn’t happened at this early juncture of his career. He could benefit exponentially from the change of scenery, but is unlikely to offer much in the final week of the regular season.

Giants placed 1B/DH Bryce Eldridge on the 7-day concussion injured list.

There’s technically a chance that Eldridge could return before the regular season concludes since the move is retroactive to September 18. That seems highly unlikely after he was placed in concussion protocol after hitting his head in an off-field accident at the team’s hotel last Friday. It would be surprising if he came back later this week. The 21-year-old top prospect turned in a phenomenal second half to hit .269/.364/.461 with 50 runs scored, 17 homers, 57 RBI and one steal in 448 plate appearances this season.

Giants placed OF Jung Hoo Lee on the 10-day injured list with a groin contusion.

Lee’s season is officially over after hitting .276/.320/.404 with 65 runs scored, 10 homers, 57 RBI and 12 steals in 579 plate appearances. The 28-year-old outfielder offers a little bit of production across every category from a fantasy standpoint and is going to finish the year as a top-50 range option at the position. He’ll be a relatively low-upside roster filler in drafts next spring.

Blue Jays sent RHP Michael Lorenzen outright to Triple-A Buffalo.

Lorenzen figures to elect free agency and get a head start on the offseason after passing through waivers unclaimed. The well-traveled 34-year-old made six appearances for Toronto before being designated for assignment last week. He finishes the year with a calamitous 7.21 ERA across 127 1/3 innings between the Blue Jays and Rockies.

Dodgers activated OF Andy Pages from the 10-day injured list.

Pages returns to Los Angeles’ lineup for Tuesday’s series opener against the Padres following a one-month absence recovering from surgery to address a left hand fracture. The 25-year-old fantasy standout was hitting .272/.338/.458 with 72 runs scored, 21 homers, 80 RBI and 12 steals in 550 plate appearances prior to the injury. He’s clearly worth rolling out there in most fantasy leagues based on his raw talent alone, but the Dodgers are presumably going to manage his workload closely during the final week of the regular season since he skipped a minor league rehab assignment altogether.

The 24-year-old former starter is ostensibly auditioning for a spot in the Dodgers’ bullpen for their upcoming playoff run during the final week of the season after missing a couple weeks with a blister issue. He can be safely dropped in nearly all redraft fantasy leagues.

Giants optioned RHP Emmet Sheehan to Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Technically, Sheehan could be brought back later this week to take the ball against the Giants in place of an injured Blake Snell (groin), but that would require another player, not necessarily Snell himself, to go on the injured list. The 26-year-old righty struck out nine over 5 1/3 shutout frames against San Francisco on Sunday. He’s been temporarily demoted to get Roki Sasaki back on Los Angeles’ active roster.,
