How new Met Freddy Peralta has fared at Citi Field, against NL East

2 hours ago 3

Freddy Peralta will have some new digs to get used to pitching in and some teams that he will be seeing a lot more of following a late-night trade to the Mets on Wednesday. 

The right-hander was dealt from the Brewers to the Amazin’s in a deal that also sent Tobias Myers to Queens, in exchange for prospects Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams

The move means Peralta would be seeing much more of Citi Field this year compared to how often he’s pitched there during the course of his eight years in the major leagues.

The righty has only taken the mound in Queens twice in his career, both of which have come in the past two seasons. 

Peralta has a 2-0 record at Citi Field while posting a 2.25 ERA and 14 strikeouts. 

His first appearance in Queens came in a 3-1 win by the Brewers on March 29, 2024. He went six innings and allowed just one run. Peralta’s second start was on July 2, 2025, in a 7-2 drubbing of the Mets. 

The move to the Mets also means Peralta is going to become quite familiar with the National League East. 

Peralta already has some familiarity with the division, having faced the Braves, Marlins, Nationals and Phillies a combined 36 times.

The starter has five wins against the Braves over eight starts while posting a 4.26 ERA against the Mets’ rivals. 

Peralta’s 3.12 ERA against the Phillies is the best earned runs average he has posted versus an NL East team, but he has an 0-2 record in seven starts. 

He has a 3-4 record against the Marlins with a 4.03 ERA and 58 strikeouts and a 5.82 ERA against the Nationals with 41 strikeouts.
