Peacock signed a minor-league contract with the Twins on Thursday, Brandon Warne of Access Twins reports. Peacock recently spent a month at Triple-A St. Paul and posted a 2.92 ERA and 0.97 WHIP in 12.1 innings over 12 appearances with the club. He opted out of his contract recently but will rejoin the organization on another minor-league deal a few days later. The right-hander will head back to St. Paul following Thursday's transaction.

Peacock recently opted out of his Triple-A contract with Minnesota and was released, Darren Wolfson of Channel 5 Saint Paul reports. Peacock began the season at Triple-A Omaha and posted a 1.88 ERA, 45:16 K:BB and 1.29 WHIP in 38.1 innings over 35 relief appearances prior to being released by the Royals on July 19. He then gave up four runs in 12.1 innings with 12 strikeouts (but five walks) with Triple-A St. Paul.

The 34-year-old will attempt to maintain his success at Triple-A St. Paul now that he's landed another minor-league contract.

The Royals released Peacock from his minor-league contract Sunday. Peacock was one three players cut loose from the Triple-A Omaha roster as the affiliate prepares to welcome back a number of players coming out of the All-Star break after the big club needed reinforcements from the minor-league ranks last weekend when 10 players were placed on the restricted list for the Royals' series in Toronto. Over his 38.1 innings out of the Omaha bullpen this season, Peacock turned in a 1.88 ERA, 1.29 WHIP and 45:16 K:BB. He shouldn't have much trouble landing a minor-league deal with another organization.

Peacock signed a minor-league contract with the Royals on Monday. The 34-year-old enjoyed a productive three-year run as a swingman with the Astros from 2017 through 2019 -- he went 23-13 with a 3.46 ERA and 29.4 K% over 288.2 innings -- but recurring shoulder problems have derailed his career ever since. He's made only five appearances at the big-league level over the past two seasons, and at this stage in his career, the Royals may view him exclusively as a reliever. Peacock's deal likely includes an invitation to big-league spring training, but he'll still presumably be on the outside looking in for a spot on the Royals' Opening Day roster.
