Mets fans are celebrating, but they just got fleeced. Giving up Jett Williams AND Brandon Sproat—two of your top 5 prospects—for one year of Freddy Peralta is insane. Peralta is a rental who is a free agent in 2027. If he gets injured or walks next year, you just torched your farm system for nothing. The Brewers do this every time: they trade their stars at peak value (Burnes, Hader) and rebuild instantly while the other team gets stuck with the bill. History is repeating itself.
