Could Freddy Peralta be the sneaky trade target for the Giants? Today we break down why Peralta was named by MLB executives as one of the top trade candidates of the entire winter — tied with Joe Ryan and Ketel Marte — and why his combination of swing-and-miss stuff, team-friendly contract, and playoff experience makes him a perfect fit for what San Francisco claims it wants to build. We look at what a Giants–Brewers trade package might realistically look like, including how a fast-rising Giants prospect (ranked No. 3 on Rotoprospects’ fast risers and No. 4 in the Giants system) could factor into the conversation. We also touch on the newest bullpen addition, lefty reliever Sam Hentges, and what his pitch mix and recent numbers suggest about his role under the Giants’ revamped pitching infrastructure. Big episode today: front-office intel, trade theory, prospect impact, bullpen updates, and what it all means for the Giants’ offseason plan.
