Freddy Peralta was scratched from Friday's start against the Marlins due to trade interest picking up.

Fantasy Impact

Peralta is a name that has been floated in deadline rumors in recent weeks, and it seems there is enough interest to keep him off the mound on Friday. The right-hander has a 4.99 ERA in 113 2/3 innings this season, but could benefit from a change of scenery to a potential contender down the stretch.

Freddy Peralta will start on Friday for the Mets against the Marlins.

Fantasy Impact

Peralta is seemingly likely to be traded ahead of Monday's deadline. This will likely be his final start with the Mets as a result.

Freddy Peralta allowed two earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out three across four innings in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Los Angeles Dodgers.

Fantasy Impact

While Peralta wasn't lights out on Sunday in a tough matchup against the Dodgers, he turned in a much better performance than his previous outing, when he allowed seven earned runs against the Milwaukee Brewers. Even so, the veteran right-hander has struggled this month, posting a 6.85 ERA and 1.48 WHIP in July. He'll look to record his first quality start since June 3 when he takes the mound on Friday against a Miami Marlins club that has lost 12 straight games.
