Jake Peter: Cut loose by Dodgers
Peter was released by the Dodgers on Wednesday.
Peter was acquired via trade by the Dodgers prior to the 2018 campaign and made a strong impression in his first spring camp with the club, but he never got things going in his two seasons in the organization. In 321 plate appearances with Triple-A Oklahoma City last season, Peter hit a meager .199, though he did draw 56 walks and slam seven home runs.

Dodgers' Jake Peter: Shipped to minors
Peter was assigned to the minor leagues following Monday's game against Oakland, J.P. Hoornstra of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.
Peter went 10-for-38 with three home runs and 14 RBI in 20 spring training games. With Justin Turner suffering a broken wrist, Peter has a chance to find himself on the major league roster before Turner's return in May.

Dodgers' Jake Peter: Opening eyes with power
Peter stayed red-hot Saturday, going 2-for-2 with a home run (his third this spring) and three RBI in a win over Arizona.
The utility infielder joined the Dodgers as part of a multi-player deal in January, and while he wasn't expected to have a shot at the Opening Day roster, his early power binge may have put him in the conversation for one of the final spots. Peter slashed .292/.351/.506 in 45 games with Triple-A Charlotte last year, so this offensive showcase may not be as fluky as it seems at first glance. The 24-year-old would obviously have to keep this pace up for the rest of spring training if the Dodgers were going to seriously consider him for the Opening Day roster. For fantasy purposes, it would take an injury or two (or three) to realistically open up relevant playing time on a stacked Dodgers roster. Peter's stock is up, but fantasy owners shouldn't overreact to the hot start quite yet.

Dodgers' Jake Peter: Traded to Dodgers
Peter was traded to the Dodgers on Thursday as part of a three-team deal.
The Dodgers received Peter and reliever Scott Alexander while sending Luis Avilan to the White Sox and minor leaguers Erick Mejia and Trevor Oaks to the Royals. Peter is a career .282 hitter across four minor-league seasons and possesses the ability to play multiple defensive positions which could help him work his way onto the Dodgers' major-league roster as a super-utility player.
