Peralta willing to consider multiyear deal with Mets but wants to get settled in New York first
January 27, 2026
Freddy Peralta says he’s willing to consider a multiyear contract with the Mets before reaching free agency, but he wants to get settled in New York first. Mets president of baseball operations David Stearns expressed a similar sentiment after acquiring Peralta in a trade with Milwaukee last week, saying he would definitely allow the All-Star pitcher an adjustment period before potentially broaching a long-term arrangement. Peralta is due to make $8 million this season after the Brewers picked up their club option on a deal he signed in 2020. He can become a free agent following the World Series.
