Mets likely to trade Freddy Peralta if struggles continue
Summary

The New York Mets may consider trading pitcher Freddy Peralta if their current season struggles persist. Acquired from the Brewers, Peralta is in a contract year, and with no extension signed as June approaches, he has emerged as a prime trade candidate. The Mets had expected more success this season with Peralta, but as they fall back in the race, management might look to offload assets. This situation highlights the Mets' disappointing trajectory for the season, which has not met preseason expectations.
