Milwaukee is the lone lead in the Central Division of the National League with 48 wins and 33 losses. It is 6.5 games ahead of the second-ranked St. Louis Cardinals. Unless something unexpected happens, it will go through the postseason. It ranks fourth in the National League with a team batting average of 0.255 and a team OPS of 0.732. The team has good batting performance.
The problem lies in the starting lineup. He ranks ninth in the National League with 4.27 ERA in his team’s starting lineup. Major players are Freddie Peralta, who has 5 wins and 4 losses and 4.03 ERA in 16 games, Colin Leah, who has 6 wins and 2 losses and 3.62 ERA in 13 games, and Tobias Myers, who has 5 wins and 2 losses and 3.12 ERA in 11 games.
They lack overwhelming cards. Even DL Hall, Joe Ross, Brandon Woodruff, Wade Miley and Robert Gasser are on the 60-day injured list for different reasons. They urgently need to strengthen their starting pitchers. However, the Palm system is not very good either. For Milwaukee, trying to recruit Garrett Croesher, the No. 1 player in the trade rankings, poses high risks, and Pedi may be a more attractive card.
In fact, Peddy was selected as the second most likely option to fill the middle of the starting lineup selected by Dear Slatic on the day after Jordan Montgomery (Arizona Diamondbacks). Croesher is classified as one-two punch, and Peddy is a solid resource that can take care of the waist of the starting lineup.
Blitzer Report said, “Peddy was a top prospect when he was with the Washington Nationals. However, he did not make it after entering the Major League. The 31-year-old spent the 2023 season with the NC Dinos in the KBO League and won the league MVP. The White Sox signed a two-year, $15 million contract for the offseason. Last year’s success led to a successful return to the Major League.”
In addition, Bleacher Report said, “The White Sox are almost certain to have high sales to the trade deadline, his team-friendly salary, and the club’s control by the 2025 season make it an ideal target for budget-conscious Milwaukee.”
Meanwhile, Bleacher Report predicted that if Milwaukee acquires Peddy, it will give up right-hander Josh Knoss and first baseman Wes Clark to the White Sox. It is not known whether Peddy will actually wear a Milwaukee uniform, but it seems clear that the trade is getting closer.
If Peddy goes to Milwaukee, he could make his Major League Baseball postseason debut. When he was with the Washington D.C., he could not play a single postseason game.
