Freddy Peralta Earns Second Career All-Star Nod for Brewers

July 7, 2025 by Last Word On Baseball

Milwaukee Brewers ace right-hander Freddy Peralta has been named to the 2025 MLB All-Star Game. This marks the second All-Star selection of his career (first since 2021) and solidifies his status as one of the National League’s premier pitchers. Peralta’s nomination comes as no surprise to Brewers fans, who have watched him dominate opposing lineups throughout the first half of the season.

Brewers Ace Freddy Peralta Named to Second All-Star Game

A Season Defined by Consistency and Command

Peralta, at 29, has been the anchor of Milwaukee’s rotation. He leads the pitching staff with a 2.91 ERA, a 9-4 record, and 104 strikeouts over 99 innings pitched. His ability to mix a high-velocity four-seam fastball with a devastating changeup and slider has left hitters guessing all season. Notably, Peralta’s ERA is his lowest since 2021. His advanced metrics, like a 138 ERA+, underscore just how effective he’s been compared to his peers.

Brewers’ Lone All-Star, But a Worthy One

The Brewers currently find themselves in a heated Wild Card race. Peralta’s performance has stood out even as trade rumors swirl around the team’s ace. His durability and team-friendly contract have made him a valuable asset. Yet for now, he remains the face of the Brewers’ pitching staff. Upon receiving the news, Peralta credited his teammates and coaches for helping him reach this milestone. He emphasized the collective effort behind his success. “I’m grateful for this honor and proud to represent Milwaukee,” Peralta said. “This is for the team, the fans, and everyone who’s supported me along the way.”

Manager Pat Murphy echoed those sentiments, highlighting Peralta’s leadership both on and off the field. “Freddy sets the tone every fifth day. He’s earned this, and we’re all proud of him,” Murphy remarked.

Looking Ahead to All-Star Week in Atlanta

With the All-Star Game set for July 15 at Truist Park in Atlanta, all eyes will be on Peralta as he takes the mound among baseball’s elite. Brewers fans hope his stellar form continues into the second half, keeping Milwaukee in the thick of the playoff hunt and, perhaps, making a case for even more hardware by season’s end.
