Wait he’s also a former Mets … never mind

[u/BebophoneVirtuoso → u/da3n_vmo]

Mets opening day starter who outdueled Paul Skenes in his team debut?

[u/Bhulmes → u/BebophoneVirtuoso]

We should have stopped the count

So many good ABs that inning and game, and the rest is history

[u/NoBonus6969 → u/Bhulmes]

I forgot about that game. Those were the promised times. 😭

[u/orange_lazarus1 → u/BebophoneVirtuoso]

Jets preseason hall of famer

[u/Raysfan75]

Rays Starter Freddy Peralta was already taken, huh?

[u/beepingnoise → u/Raysfan75]

Traded Mets struggling starter

[u/LogicalDog1492]

Former brewers ace is a weird way of saying (current) Rays pitcher….

[u/HairyNutsack69 → u/LogicalDog1492]

There's also a team he played for between those 2.

[u/ars2x → u/HairyNutsack69]

That nearly ruined his career. Glad to see him succeed after escaping.

• long suffering Met fan

[u/Chambanasfinest]

Glad he was able to figure things out this year and make an impact in the postseason.

[u/MilwaukeeMan420 → u/Chambanasfinest]

How intesne would be to face Fastball Freddy in the WS? Would give me chills.

What did the Mets do to this man to make him so ass while he was there?

[u/MarkWithAnM7 → u/CatConnoisuer]

Sign him and put him in that clubhouse

[u/JSmooth94 → u/CatConnoisuer]

We had four starting pitchers that pitched great this year. Not sure why Peralta couldn't pitch well.

[u/torper10 → u/JSmooth94]

Four? Definitely McLean. Who are the others?

[u/JSmooth94 → u/torper10]

Imo Scott, Thornton, and Holmes

[u/torper10 → u/JSmooth94]

Scott was OK. Thornton pitched 84 innings, Holmes 52 (for the Mets).

They have one solid pitcher in McLean and even he can still be considered an unknown quantity at this point.

[u/AnthonyMiqo]

Happy for him. Clearly our organization did something to fuck him up. Or he couldn't handle NYC, but he's handling postseason pressure just fine, so I think we just fucked him up. Glad he's doing better now.

[u/Mobile-Jump6936 → u/AnthonyMiqo]

When in doubt, yeah the Mets fucked it up.

[u/werther595 → u/Mobile-Jump6936]

If they could do it to Scherzer and Verlander, they could do it to anyone

[u/thatBLACKDREADtho]

I'm a Tigers guy, but I collect Peralta autos and jerseys.

Love me some Fastball Freddy.

[u/Boondocsaint11]

The real question is since when does Freddy throw 98??

[u/SoCalShortround]

Damn, the Mets pitching development must be horrible. He looks completely normal on the Ray's

[u/BebophoneVirtuoso → u/SoCalShortround]

Yeah, we saw that with Raley too.

[u/SoCalShortround → u/BebophoneVirtuoso]

Fair on Raley. But I know Wheeler hurts

[u/Algaebruhh]

My favorite gag as a Rays fan is seeing former (team) next to a huge chunk of our lineup, including former (Ray) on opposing teams. Its almost like they don't care to acknowledge the players we farmed haha

[u/Mean_Baseball5109]

It would be great if Peralta was in Milwaukee

[u/Mean_Pop_829]

I didn't know Freddy was still playing! Good for him

[u/MilwaukeeMan420 → u/Mean_Pop_829]

Still playing? Dude is thriving

[u/Adidaz17]

Cant believe he played amazing today was expecting 3.2 innings 4 ER thank fk I was wrong

[u/SmurfsNeverDie]

I am happy Peralta is shining again. Whatever it was, be it the mets, time or space, he is now performing like a champ in a big moment.

[u/Mean_Baseball5109]

Lo hizo muy bien

[u/Mean_Baseball5109]

If they eliminate the Dodgers, the road is left for a new and great champion. Milwaukee and Tampa deserve it.

[u/Secret-Secret-No-No → u/Mean_Baseball5109]

It’s sad seeing Tampa ALCS only selling 31,000 on a 42,000 stadium.

Meanwhile Milwaukee sell over a thousand “standing room only” tickets.

[u/Confident-Line-2558]

Getting away from that Mets shitshow was the best thing that coulda happen to him.
