Peralta will begin season in Brewers' starting rotation

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta has earned a spot in the starting rotation after pitching primarily in relief last year

MARCH 25, 2021 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Named fifth starter Peralta has been named the Brewers' fifth starter to begin the regular season, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

Impact Peralta made just one start for the Brewers last year, but he'll begin the year in the rotation after a strong spring performance. The right-hander has made three Cactus League appearances (one start) and allowed one run on eight hits and three walks while striking out 15 in 8.1 innings.

No matter the role, Freddy Peralta, Josh Lindblom will be counted on to fill innings for Brewers Whether they are in the rotation at the start or the bullpen, Freddy Peralta and Josh Lindblom are expected to fill innings for the Brewers.

Making case for rotation spot Peralta tossed 2.2 scoreless innings in Thursday's spring game against the Royals. He allowed two hits, struck out seven batters and walked one.

Impact Peralta shined in a relief role last season, but the Brewers are giving him a chance to start this spring. He has done just about all he could do up to this point, giving up no earned runs over 3.2 innings while recording 10 of the 11 outs he has tallied via the strikeout. It likely won't be known until late in the spring season if Peralta will open in the rotation or in the bullpen, but his fantasy stock would undoubtedly get a boost should it be the former.

Freddy Peralta's pitch repertoire continues to evolve At worst, Freddy Peralta is another option within a deep stable. At best, he's a prime candidate for a breakout with the Brewers.

Getting stretched out Manager Craig Counsell said Wednesday that Peralta will be stretched out during spring training as the Brewers prepare to have him handle a larger innings load in 2021, Will Sammon...

Impact While Counsell didn't suggest that Peralta will be competing for a spot in Milwaukee's rotation, the team seemingly wants to maximize his use as a primary pitcher or multi-inning relief arm after he pitched effectively out of the bullpen in 2020. Over his 29.1 innings, Peralta posted a 3.99 ERA (2.40 FIP) to go with an exceptional 28.0 K-BB%. Since he doesn't have a starting role and likely won't be considered for save situations, Peralta will likely slide under the radar in fantasy, but he could have some sneaky value in the ratio and strikeout categories if he ends up approaching 100 innings over the course of a full season.

Milwaukee Brewers place Freddy Peralta on paternity list; Eric Lauer recalled from Alternate Training Site Fastball Freddy to welcome a child into the world

SEPTEMBER 24, 2020 • BREWCREWBALL.COM

Placed on paternity list Peralta was placed on the paternity list Thursday.

Impact Peralta has pitched well recently as he's allowed just one run over his last five appearances while earning two wins during that time. However, he'll now be sidelined after the birth of his child. Players usually spend approximately three days on the paternity list, so it's unclear whether he'll return during the regular season. However, he could be available out of the bullpen if the Brewers qualify for the postseason. Left-hander Eric Lauer was recalled in a corresponding move.

Earns win in Game 2 Peralta (3-1) pitched two perfect innings and struck out three to earn the win in Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Cardinals.

Impact Peralta followed opener Brent Suter in the contest. The 24-year-old Peralta was particularly impressive in the fifth inning, striking out the side on 14 pitches. He's posted a 3.51 ERA, 1.12 WHIP and 43:11 K:BB across 25.2 innings this season. Peralta also has two holds in 13 appearances.
