What Brewers fans should expect from former ace Freddy Peralta in Game 3 of World Series

Freddy Peralta, who was the Brewers' ace in 2025 before being traded to the Mets and then the Rays, will start Game 3 of the World Series against Milwaukee. Since joining Tampa Bay at the trade deadline, Peralta has posted a 3.25 ERA with mechanical and pitch-mix adjustments that have made him dominant, including a 1.08 postseason ERA and ALCS MVP honors. However, advanced metrics suggest his underlying effectiveness hasn't improved as dramatically as his surface statistics indicate, with his expected ERA, FIP, and SIERA showing minimal gains since the trade.
