Woodruff Declines Option with Brewers, Who Exercise Option on Peralta, Decline Option on Jansen
Milwaukee Brewers secured Freddy Peralta's $8 million option after his 17-6 record and 2.70 ERA in 2025 while Brandon Woodruff declined his $20 million mutual option.
- In a Nov. 3 roster update, the Milwaukee Brewers announced that Brandon Woodruff declined his $20 million mutual option, making him a free agent, while Freddy Peralta's $8 million club option was exercised.
- Returning from shoulder surgery, Woodruff posted a 3.20 ERA in 12 starts and expects to be fully healthy, while Peralta's 17-6 record with a 2.70 ERA made his option an easy choice.
- The club protected Coleman Crow by adding him to the 40-man roster ahead of the Nov. 18 deadline and declined Danny Jansen's $12 million mutual option, making him a free agent.
- Teams have until Nov. 6 to extend a qualifying offer to Brandon Woodruff, and the Brewers would receive a draft pick if he signs elsewhere, the immediate next step.
- Looking beyond these moves, Milwaukee has yet to announce decisions on Rhys Hoskins, Jose Quintana and William Contreras, arbitration-eligible, while facing rotation questions for 2026.
