2025 Player Outlook

Despite a reduction in his ground ball rate last season, his home run issue remained stable, and he posted his second straight season with 30+ starts and a sub-3.90 ERA. His 4.16 FIP was his highest in the last half-decade, and his 27.6 percent strikeout rate was the second-lowest of his career. Despite the drop in his strikeout rate, his O-Swing% and swinging strike rate remained on par with past years, and he still boasted a healthy 87th percentile whiff rate. Slowly but surely, he’s ramped up usage on his changeup, and it was a ground ball and swing-and-miss machine last year (61.2% GB%, 36.9% whiff rate). Peralta is a tried-and-true fantasy starter and is more than capable of being your SP2 this season. If you attack starting pitching early, and Peralta is your team’s SP3, you’ll be in a great spot for 2025, as Peralta will give you solid numbers across the board, and his WHIP will drop below 1.20 if he can shave a few percentage points off his walk rate.
