The Milwaukee Brewers' biggest question mark this offseason remains who will be atop their starting rotation when the 2026 season rolls around. Immediately following the team's departure from the postseason, rumors started to circle about Milwaukee's front office's willingness to field calls on their ace, Freddy Peralta, which should come as no surprise to Brewers fans, as the front office not fielding calls would mean they aren't properly doing their jobs.
At various points throughout the offseason so far, the likelihood of a Peralta trade has wavered. When Brandon Woodruff accepted the qualifying offer, it appeared as if the Brewers were "running it back" in 2026 with a similar group that advanced to the NLCS in 2025.
