The Chicago White Sox took a major step forward in their rebuild this season, as they made the postseason.

Now, after their successful 2026 season, the White Sox should be looking to add more talent this offseason. One of their top needs heading into the offseason is to improve their starting rotation. Due to this, they are now being linked to a notable free agent starting pitcher.

In a recent article for ESPN, David Schoenfield named the White Sox among the top fits for star free agent pitcher Freddy Peralta this offseason.

Seeing the White Sox being linked to Peralta is understandable. It is clear that their starting rotation needs another star, and bringing in a high-impact pitcher like Peralta would provide them with just that.

Peralta appeared in 32 games this season split between the New York Mets and Tampa Bay Rays, posting a 10-11 record and a 4.42 ERA. However, he was excellent after being traded to the Rays. Thus, it would make sense if the White Sox made a push for the two-time All-Star pitcher this offseason. This is especially so when noting that he had a 17-6 record and a 2.70 ERA in 33 games for the Milwaukee Brewers just back in 2025.

Nevertheless, it will be interesting to see if the White Sox can sign Peralta this offseason. If they did, he would be a very strong addition to the front half of their rotation.
