Now a fixture in Milwaukee, “Fastball Freddy” has a t-shirt!

Freddy Peralta’s future with the Milwaukee Brewers may be as a bullpen ace. Or, it could be as a rotational stalwart. Perhaps it’s somewhere in-between as the ultimate swingman. We don’t know exactly what role Fastball Freddy will settle into, but we do know that after signing a long-term extension with the Brewers, we will be able to watch him exuberantly fill up the strike zone with heaters while baffling opposing batters for years to come.

When you’ve got a guy that throws heat like Freddy Peralta does in Milwaukee, you don’t need to overthink a nickname.
