Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (lat) is rejoining the team in Pittsburgh, and his next outing will be for the Brewers, although the exact date is to be determined. Peralta allowed one run on three hits while walking none and striking out five in his final minor league rehab outing with Triple-A Nashville on Friday night, and the Brewers liked what they saw. The 26-year-old right-hander only threw 52 pitches in the outing, though, so there's a good chance he won't go deep into his first start back for Milwaukee next week. He hasn't pitched in the big leagues since May, and he's gone 3-2 this year with a 4.42 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 50 strikeouts in 38 2/3 innings over eight starts. Peralta should be rostered in most fantasy formats.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (lat) struck out five hitters while allowing an unearned run on three hits with no walks in 3 1/3 innings in his minor league rehab start for Triple-A Nashville on Friday night. He was also able to touch 96 mph with his fastball while throwing 52 pitches in the outing. The 26-year-old right-hander might need to make another outing in the minors, but he's not far off from returning to the Brewers rotation. Peralta last started in the majors on May 22, so he'll be a bit more risky when he initially returns to Milwaukee. Before his injury, he was 3-2 with a 4.42 ERA (2.11 FIP), 1.19 WHIP, 50 strikeouts and 13 walks in 38 2/3 innings over eight starts. Stash him now if he's somehow available on your league's waiver wire.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta (lat) made his first rehab appearance at Triple-A Nashville on Sunday. He pitched two innings and allowed one hit, one walk and one earned run while striking out three. The only hit allowed was a solo home run. Peralta has been out since late May due to a right lat strain. Peralta will likely need at least two more rehab outings before being activated by the Brewers. If he can avoid any setbacks, the 26-year-old has a chance to be back in the majors at some point in the middle of August.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (lat) threw a flat ground on Saturday and manager Craig Counsell said it went "great". This is another step in the right direction for the young righty, who has been sidelined since late May with a lat strain. He still has many hurdles to clear, however, and won't be ready until late July at the earliest. The 26-year-old stud had a 4.42 ERA and 1.19 WHIP, but was heating up before going on the IL. Excluding the start where he injured himself, Peralta had a 1.57 ERA and 0.80 WHIP over his last six starts. He should be a great option for fantasy managers down the stretch.

Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell provided an updated on injured starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) on Monday. He stated that Peralta will miss "significant" time, but that the team is optimistic he will return later this season. An MRI on Peralta's shoulder revealed a posterior shoulder strain. The injury likely won't lead to Peralta needing surgery. It will just require for him to be shut down for quite some time. This is of course unfortunate news for fantasy managers, but at least it sounds like there's a chance that Peralta will be able to return for the fantasy playoffs. Fantasy managers should continue to stash Peralta in an IL spot in all leagues.

The Milwaukee Brewers have officially placed starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) on the 15-day injured list with a right lat strain. The 25-year-old suffered the injury during Sunday's game. After the contest, all indications were that Peralta would require a trip to the injured list. His timeline is a bit unclear, but we at least know he'll miss at least the next two turns in the rotation. The Brewers have yet to announce who will take his spot in the rotation. Peralta has made eight starts so far this year and he's gone 3-2 with a 4.42 ERA and a 1.19 WHIP.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) will stay in Milwaukee and undergo an MRI exam on his right shoulder on Monday. Peralta reported tightness in the back of his shoulder during a mound visit on Sunday against the Washington Nationals. Manager Craig Counsell said Peralta will go on the injured list. Fantasy managers will know more of a timetable for the 25-year-old right-hander after his MRI results are released, but he's likely to miss at least a couple turns in the rotation. The Brewers will go with a five-man starting rotation with Peralta sidelined, but right-hander Aaron Ashby is a candidate to take Peralta's spot in the Brewers rotation moving forward.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) was removed in the fourth inning of his start against the Washington Nationals on Sunday. While the specifics of the injury have yet to be revealed, it appears as if it is related to his right shoulder. The right-hander pointed to the area behind his right shoulder prior to walking off the field with the team's athletic trainer. It was a rough day for the 25-year-old. His final line was three innings, six hits, one walk, five earned runs and two strikeouts. We should know more about the injury later today so make sure to stay tuned.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta has strung together several strong outings of late, turning around what was a difficult beginning to the season. After allowing nine runs in seven innings in two starts to start the year, Peralta has given up just five runs in 21 2/3 innings with 28 strikeouts over his last four. Peralta does not offer much length, meaning his win and quality start totals may be limited, but he offers elite strikeout upside and is a top fantasy option as long as he can provide decent run prevention. It's worth noting that his last three outings have been against weak offenses in the Pirates, the Reds, and the Reds again, but he'll look to keep the streak up against Atlanta on Monday.

Milwaukee Brewers right-hander Freddy Peralta has gotten off to a rocky start in 2022. The 25-year-old has made three starts, posting a 7.50 ERA, 1.75 WHIP, and 16 strikeouts spanning 12 innings of work. Peralta has a good shot at turning things around when he takes the mound on the road against the Pittsburgh Pirates on Thursday afternoon. Pittsburgh's lineup is 23rd in the league in ISO against right-handed pitching and 19th in wRC. While Peralta has been a shaky fantasy performer thus far in 2022, fantasy gamers should strongly consider getting him active for Thursday's start.

On Friday night, Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta will look to rebound from his lackluster first start of the season last Sunday against the Cubs. Peralta will face the Cardinals at home, looking to improve on his last outing in which he allowed three earned runs on three hits and four walks while striking out six, over four innings pitched. Expectations for fantasy managers are high for Peralta who is coming off a 2021 campaign in which he posted a 2.81 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and struck out 195 over 144 1/3 IP in 27 starts. Despite the great 2021 campaign, Peralta did struggle against the Cardinals last season over four starts, posting a 5.29 ERA, and 1.18 WHIP in 17 IP (albeit with 23 strikeouts). Despite his 2021 struggles with St. Louis, he is an elite SP option and should remain active in all formats for Friday's contest.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta is having himself a decent spring so far. The hard-throwing 25-year-old has put up a 4.50 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, and 10:2 K/BB ratio over three starts (10 innings). While the ERA and strikeout numbers aren't phenomenal, it's nice to see that Peralta has only issued two free passes through his three starts. He should get one final tune-up before the regular season begins and will operate as the Brewers' third starter behind Corbin Burnes and Brandon Woodruff. Peralta is coming off a breakout season in 2021 in which he posted a 10-5 record to go along with a sparkling 2.81 ERA, 0.97 WHIP, and 195:56 K/BB ratio over 144 1/3 innings (27 starts).

On Friday, Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell told reporters that pitcher Freddy Peralta would start either Game 3 or Game 4 of the NLDS against the Atlanta Braves. The 25-year-old had a fantastic year, pitching to a 2.81 ERA and a 0.97 WHIP over 28 games (27 starts). However, he's been on extended rest lately as he hasn't pitched since September 26. His 144.1 innings in 2021 were a distant career-high and the team wanted to manage his workload down the stretch. We'll see what effect the long rest has on him (if any) as he takes the mound for his first postseason start this series.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta will pitch at some point over this upcoming weekend, according to Brewers manager Craig Counsell. Brett Anderson, Eric Lauer and Corbin Burns are scheduled to start the team's next three games from Thursday through Saturday, but their starter for Sunday's game has yet to be announced. Peralta could get the start for that game or he could work in a relief role this weekend. The 25-year-old right-hander has had a fantastic season. Over 28 games (27 starts), he's gone 10-5 with a 2.81 ERA, a 0.97 WHIP and a 33.6% strikeout rate.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) is on track to return to the starting rotation on Friday versus the St. Louis Cardinals. He hasn't made any rehab starts, but it doesn't sound like he'll need one. The right-hander is likely going to miss roughly two weeks of action, but it sounds like he's making solid progress. Peralta has been reliable when healthy, so fantasy managers should continue holding him through this shoulder injury. He'll be a strong DFS option for Friday's slate against the Cardinals.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder), who has been sidelined for about a week due to mild shoulder inflammation, is scheduled to throw a bullpen session on Friday. It will be his first mound work since sustaining the injury. He played catch on Thursday and reportedly felt great afterwards. According to MLB.com's Adam McCalvy, Peralta will have a few days off after Friday's bullpen session, then he will throw another bullpen session, then he will join the rotation again. If that timeline holds, Peralta should be slated to make his return some time within the first three or four days of September. Peralta is in the midst of a career year with a 9-3 record to go along with a 3.81 ERA, a 1.15 WHIP and a 34% strikeout rate.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) is expected to throw off the mound later this week. He landed on the injured list last Thursday, but appears to be making solid progress. The hope is that the 25-year-old will be able to return to the rotation by the end of the week. However, Peralta needs to be able to throw off flat ground without any issues before rejoining the Brewers rotation. Fantasy managers should continue to hold Peralta through the injury.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) played catch on Sunday, according to Adam McCalvy of MLB.com. After landing on the 10-day injured list with right shoulder inflammation on August 19, manager Craig Counsel has said that he's hoping it'll be a minimum stay on the IL. Peralta has been a big part of the Brewers rotation success, posting a 2.45 ERA with a 34.0 K% and a 10.6 BB% over 22 starts. He has been one of the best starting options in fantasy, contributing in ERA and has been one of the premier strikeout pitchers this season. Once he returns, he should continue to be a must-start.

The Milwaukee Brewers placed starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) on the 10-day injured list on Thursday with right shoulder inflammation. The starter previously exited Wednesday's game against the St. Louis Cardinals in the third inning. Peralta has pitched like an elite pitcher this season, both for the Brewers and for fantasy managers. In 121.1 innings the right-hander has pitched to a 2.45 ERA, a 2.97 FIP, 164 strikeouts, and 51 walks. Left-handed pitcher Hoby Milner was recalled to take the starter's spot on the active roster. Milner, however, is a reliever so it'll be worth monitoring to see what the Brewers do with Peralta's rotation spot while the 25-year-old is on the injured list.

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Freddy Peralta (shoulder) was removed from his start against the St. Louis Cardinals on Wednesday in the middle of the third inning. After the game, it was reported that Peralta was dealing with right shoulder discomfort. He suffered the injury while he was batting. He struck out to end the top of the third inning and didn't make it out to the mound for the bottom of the third. Peralta is in the midst of a breakout season. He's gone 9-3 with a 2.45 ERA and a 0.94 WHIP. We don't know anything about the severity of the injury at this point, so make sure to stay tuned for more updates.
