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

· New York Post

Freddy Peralta will have some new digs to get used to pitching in and some teams that he will be seeing more often 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 the two-time All-Star will be toeing the slab much more at Citi Field this year compared to how often he’s pitched there previously in his eight years in the major leagues.

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

In all, Peralta has a 2-0 record with a 2.25 ERA and 14 strikeouts at Citi Field. 

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 came on 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. 

He 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.

Peralta’s 3.12 ERA against the Phillies is the best mark he holds against an NL East team, though 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. 

The acquisition added to a busy week for the Mets, which included signing  Bo Bichette and adding Luis Robert Jr. in a trade with the White Sox

“What an incredible week. Let’s go Mets!” owner Steve Cohen posted on at Citi Field on Wednesday night following the Peralta deal.
