The New York Mets recently acquired Freddy Peralta from the Milwaukee Brewers, and the 29-year-old pitcher expressed interest in signing an extension before Opening Day. However, reports indicate it is “highly unlikely” that such a deal will occur, as Mets president David Stearns prefers shorter contracts for pitchers. Despite the hefty price paid for Peralta, including top prospects Brandon Sproat and Jett Williams, his long-term future with the team remains uncertain. Stearns aims for Peralta to be a valuable asset this season.
