Dodgers' Shane Peterson: Inks NRI deal with Dodgers
Shane Peterson signed a minor-league deal with the Los Angeles Dodgers on Wednesday that includes an invite to spring training, Ken Rosenthal of The Athletic reports.The 30-year-old spent all of last season in the minors while younger outfield options were tested in the majors, but he made the most of his stay at Triple-A. Peterson slashed .286/.343/.451 with 11 home runs and 74 RBI with El Paso. He also brings the ability to play all three outfield spots and a bit of first base to the picture. However, the Dodgers have many better options at the major-league level already, so Peterson faces an uphill climb to crack the Opening Day roster in 2019.

Padres' Shane Peterson: Shifts to minors camp
Shane Peterson was reassigned to minor-league camp Sunday.After signing a minor-league contract with an invitation to spring training in December, Peterson faced an uphill battle at cracking the San Diego Padres' Opening Day roster. The veteran outfielder posted a .400 OBP in his numerous Cactus League appearances, but it ultimately wasn't enough to play his way onto the big-league roster, as the Padres are probably better served giving some of their younger outfielders an opportunity at the big-league level.

Rays' Shane Peterson: Cast off 40-man roster
Shane Peterson was designated for assignment Thursday, Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times reports.Peterson's playing time had been dwindling with the increased usage of Corey Dickerson in the outfield, and with Lucas Duda entering the fray, Dickerson will likely spend the bulk of the remainder of 2017 in left field. This makes Peterson a redundant roster piece, so he'll head off the 40-man roster to make room for the new addition. Peterson has enough MLB experience under his belt that he could garner some interest on waivers, although he'll likely act as an organizational depth piece even if he changes organizations.
