The New York Mets agreed to trade starting pitcher Freddy Peralta to the Tampa Bay Rays in exchange for a package of three minor league prospects. The deal materialized just hours before Major League Baseball's official trade deadline, as the Mets restructure their pitching staff for the final stretch of the season. Peralta, who has experienced an up-and-down performance year, brings high-strikeout potential to Tampa Bay's pitching rotation. Baseball operations officials from both clubs finalized the terms following intensive negotiations over the weekend, with physical evaluations pending to complete the transaction.
