InjuryFantasy impact
Milwaukee's rotation depth took a hit, but the franchise has a track record of replacing traded arms.
The Brewers traded Freddy Peralta to the New York Mets this offseason. Peralta, a nine-year veteran, has made seven starts for the Mets in 2026, posting a 1-3 record with a 3.52 ERA over 38.1 innings. The move adds to Milwaukee's rotation questions early in the season, with Quinn Priester on the injured list and Brandon Woodruff's availability still being sorted.
Milwaukee has historically replaced traded or departed pitching through prospect development and mid-season acquisitions, a pattern the front office will need to repeat if rotation depth continues to thin.
