Five undervalued starters to target in 2026 fantasy leagues—Bradish, Lodolo, Schlittler, Gallen, and Sproat—ranked outside the top-75 (and outside top-125 for four) but could deliver SP1–SP5 value, guided by Grey’s rankings; draft hitters early and fill your rotation with these upside arms.
The Mets acquire Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers from Milwaukee in exchange for top-100 prospects Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat (with Williams and Sproat heading to Milwaukee and Myers joining New York). Peralta strengthens New York’s rotation as a high-strikeout No. 2 starter, while Williams provides speed and multi-position defense and Sproat looks like a durable mid-rotation arm for Milwaukee. Milwaukee, meanwhile, adds to its Top 100 tally by bringing in Williams and Sproat, giving the Brewers six Top 100 prospects—tied for the most in baseball.
The Mets acquire right-hander Freddy Peralta and Tobias Myers from Milwaukee in exchange for shortstop/center fielder Jett Williams and right-hander Brandon Sproat. Peralta, a durable above-average starter, should slot as the Mets’ likely No. 1 starter to open the season, with Myers providing additional rotation depth. Milwaukee receives Williams and Sproat—two prospects who could factor into the majors and help replenish the farm—in a Burnes-style swap that strengthens Milwaukee’s long-term outlook despite losing Peralta.
The New York Mets acquired All-Star starter Freddy Peralta from the Milwaukee Brewers, sending Tobias Myers to Milwaukee along with top prospects Jett Williams and Brandon Sproat; Cooper Criswell was designated for assignment to clear a spot on Milwaukee’s 40-man. Peralta’s standout 2025 season gives the Mets a true ace atop a retooled rotation, while the Brewers add two top prospects to replenish their system and continue their ongoing asset-light approach. Extensions and CBT/payroll implications loom as both clubs head toward spring training.
The Mets are set to promote pitching prospect Brandon Sproat for his MLB debut this weekend, amid roster adjustments and discussions about the status of struggling pitcher Kodai Senga, with Sproat's debut likely before season's end and potential postseason eligibility.
The New York Mets selected high school shortstop Colin Houck as their first pick in the 2023 MLB Draft, despite already having Francisco Lindor and Ronny Mauricio in their system. Houck, a two-sport star athlete, is expected to join the Mets' improving farm system. The Mets also picked right-handed pitcher Brandon Sproat from the University of Florida, who they had previously drafted but were unable to sign last year.

The pitching matchup will feature Florida's Brandon Sproat and Vanderbilt's Hunter Owen.
No. 3 Florida defeated No. 11 Tennessee 6-1 in the first game of their series, with back-to-back homers by Josh Rivera and BT Riopelle in the fifth inning accounting for four Gator runs.

The Gators improved to 8-2 in SEC play and 26-5 overall, while Tennessee dropped to 21-9 overall and 4-6 in SEC play.
