Freddy Peralta

Because I've been in Milwaukee my whole career and they treated me super well.

There, the fans, the staff, the whole team, the organization, everything was excellent.

But at the same time, you also understand, I feel that I was ready for the moment.

I understand that it's part of the business.

And I was really very excited, even when I received David's call.

I think I was very close to crying of emotions, you know, of emotions.

And really, it's very nice, I feel very good.

Ever since I was a kid, I've always been a fan of the Mets.

I have photos of when I was 11 years old, going to the stadium, the first stadium I went to on a big day.

And all that, you know?

Remember the times back then, Pedro Martínez, José Reyes, David Wright, all of them.

You know?

It's very beautiful, actually, and I feel very excited and lucky to belong to the organization.

Next up, Laura Albanese.

Yes, you know, I speak with everybody.

You know, when we play against, we always say hi to each other.

Of course, when I spoke with Tyrone Taylor, he FaceTimed me.

Lindor, Manea.

And Alvarez, Soto, all of them.

So I got a call from them.
