Mets unlikely to extend Peralta deal

The New York Mets face a setback in their attempts to secure long-term services from newly acquired All-Star pitcher Freddy Peralta.

The Mets have received a negative update regarding contract extension talks with their newly acquired ace, Freddy Peralta. This development could mean Peralta's tenure with the team might only be temporary, effectively making him a rental player for the upcoming season.

The Mets acquired Peralta in a recent trade, hoping to bolster their pitching rotation. However, the lack of progress on a long-term deal suggests the team may need to focus on other solutions for their pitching needs beyond the current season.
