Rays' Freddy Peralta shows improvement after Mets trade

Freddy Peralta has rebounded with the Tampa Bay Rays after being traded from the New York Mets. After an unsuccessful stint with the Mets, where he posted a 4.99 ERA, Peralta has achieved a 3.60 ERA in his nine starts with the Rays, including a 0.94 ERA in his last five games. The Rays increased his changeup usage and modified his arm angle, improvements that didn't occur during his time with the Mets. The ability of the Rays to revitalize Peralta raises questions about the Mets' coaching and development systems as they trade away a player who initially appeared to have potential as an ace.
