Club option exercised The Brewers exercised Peralta's $8 million club option for 2025 on Saturday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Impact Peralta became the ace of the Brewers' staff in 2024 following the departure of Corbin Burnes and Brandon Woodruff's season-ending shoulder surgery. Given the lack of reliable arms in Milwaukee's rotation, it's unsurprising to see the team bring back Peralta, who under-performed by his own standards with a 3.68 ERA and 1.21 WHIP over 173.2 innings.

Strikes out nine in no-decision Peralta allowed one run on two hits and two walks while striking out nine over five innings in a no-decision versus the Phillies on Wednesday.
Impact Peralta limited the Phillies to an Alec Bohm solo home run in the second inning. While he hasn't been pitching particularly deep into games -- Peralta has gone six innings just twice over his last seven starts -- he's allowed just nine runs with a 34:17 K:BB over 37 innings in that span. For the season, he's at a 3.69 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 193:66 K:BB through a career-high 168.1 innings over 31 starts. The Brewers clinched the NL Central on Wednesday but are currently behind the Phillies and the Dodgers as division leaders, so they'll still have something to play for while trying to line up their postseason rotation. Peralta is projected to make his next start at Pittsburgh.

He's won three of his last five starts, allowing a total of seven runs across 26 innings despite a 22:13 K:BB in that span. Overall, Peralta is at a 3.75 ERA, 1.24 WHIP and 184:64 K:BB through 163.1 innings over 30 starts this season. He's projected to make his next appearance at home in a rematch with the Diamondbacks.

Yields three runs in loss Peralta (10-8) allowed three runs on seven hits and two walks over 4.2 innings Sunday, striking out four and taking a loss against Colorado.
Impact Peralta coughed up a home run to Hunter Goodman in the third inning and was charged with two more runs when Sam Hilliard took Hoby Milner deep for a three-run blast in the fifth. It was Peralta's first loss since Aug. 12; he entered Sunday's start with a 1.61 ERA and a 3-0 record over his previous four starts. Peralta still generated an impressive 18 swinging strikes despite his lackluster outing. He'll carry a 3.81 ERA into his next matchup, which is lined up to be in Arizona.

He's tentatively scheduled to close out a two-start week Sunday against Colorado.
