  • Peter Lambert: Headed to Japan

    Lambert signed a one-year contract with the Yakult Swallows of Nippon Professional Baseball.

    Lambert has spent his entire pro career with the Rockies and has recently served primarily as a reliever. He should have a chance to start in Japan, and he could potentially return stateside due to the short-term deal.

  • Peter Lambert: Elects free agency

    Lambert elected free agency Thursday.

    Lambert split his time in 2024 between Triple-A Albuquerque and the Rockies and has managed just a 6.28 ERA and 181:95 K:BB over 243.2 innings covering parts of four seasons in the majors. The 27-year-old was used mostly in relief this season but has plenty of past experience as a starting pitcher.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Headed to Triple-A

    The Rockies optioned Lambert to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.

    Lambert has been used mostly as a multi-inning reliever for the Rockies this season and it hasn't gone well, as he holds a 5.72 ERA and 50:29 K:BB over 61.1 innings. Jake Bird was called up from Triple-A to replace Lambert in the bullpen.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Back in action

    Lambert (thumb) allowed two hits and a walk while striking out three over 2.1 scoreless innings in Sunday's 9-8 win over Atlanta.

    Lambert bruised his thumb in an appearance versus the Mets on Thursday, but he was able to return in short order. Sunday marked just his third scoreless outing in seven appearances since the All-Star break, as Lambert remains in a long-relief role. For the season, he has a 5.73 ERA, 1.55 WHIP and 47:24 K:B through 55 innings over 25 appearances (three starts).

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Bruises thumb in relief appearance

    Lambert was removed from his relief appearance in Thursday's 9-1 loss to the Mets due to what Rockies manager Bud Black described as a "severely bruised" left thumb, MLB.com reports. "It ballooned up as the outing went on," Black said after Lambert was struck by a Francisco Lindor line drive in the fourth inning. "It got to the point where it was becoming a little bit of a distraction for him to pitch, so that's why we got him out of there. We took X-rays, and they were negative."

    Coming on in the top of the fourth inning to replace laboring starter Austin Gomber, Lambert allowed a one-out single to Tyrone Taylor, then got a double play when Lindor's liner ricocheted off the right-hander's glove to shortstop Ezequiel Tovar, who stepped on second base and threw to first. Lambert went on to pitch two more innings and struck out three batters on the day, but his overall effectiveness waned as he pitched through the thumb injury, and he ended up giving up two earned runs on five hits and one walk. Though X-rays came back negative, Lambert could be a candidate to go on the injured list if any issues are discovered once the swelling goes down.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Retrieved from Triple-A

    The Rockies recalled Lambert from Triple-A Albuquerque on Wednesday

    After making the Rockies' Opening Day roster, Lambert has bounced between Colorado and Albuquerque and has spent the last month at Triple-A. He'll take the spot of Riley Pint on the active roster. Lambert owns a 6.47 ERA across 32.0 innings with the Rockies this season.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Dispatched to Triple-A

    The Rockies optioned Lambert to Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday.

    Lambert was needed for 2.2 innings and 72 pitches out of the bullpen in Sunday's loss to the Dodgers, so he's being sent out in favor of a fresh arm. Angel Chivilli was called up from Double-A Hartford and will take Lambert's spot in the bullpen and on the 26-man active roster.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Recalled from Triple-A

    Lambert was recalled from Triple-A Albuquerque on Monday, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

    The Rockies have scratched Austin Gomber (arm) from Monday's game and will start Anthony Molina instead. With that, Lambert will return to provide depth to the bullpen. Lambert has made 13 appearances for Colorado this season, pitching to a 7.24 ERA and 1.79 WHIP over 27.1 innings.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Shifting to bullpen

    Rockies manager Bud Black said Friday that Lambert will be moving out of the rotation to the bullpen, Thomas Harding of MLB.com reports.

    Lambert has started three games for the Rockies this season, giving up at least four runs in each of them. In his last outing against the Cubs on Thursday, Lambert allowed seven runs on nine hits while striking out two over three innings. The right-hander has a 7.61 ERA and 1.69 WHIP over 23.2 innings this season. Southpaw Ty Blach could shift into the rotation for Colorado.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Tagged for seven runs

    Lambert (2-2) took the loss against the Giants on Wednesday, allowing seven runs on nine hits and no walks over three innings. He struck out two.

    Lambert went 1-2-3 through the first inning before getting lit up for six runs in the second, beginning with a leadoff homer from Michael Conforto. The right-hander would allow another run on a Blake Sabol double in the third and wouldn't return to the mound for the fourth. The seven earned runs marked a season high for Lambert, and he's now allowed at least four runs in three of his last four starts. He's still looking for his first win since April 8 against the Diamondbacks, when he was working out of the bullpen.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Shaky vs. Marlins

    Lambert did not factor into the decision Thursday against the Marlins, allowing four runs on five hits and three walks over 3.1 innings. He struck out three.

    The Marlins got to Lambert quickly, scoring twice in the opening inning before tacking on runs in the third and the fourth. The 27-year-old has struggled in his two starts this year, allowing 10 runs in 6.1 innings. He's fared better out of the bullpen, however, pitching to a 1.88 ERA over 14.1 innings in relief. Still, the right-hander figures to remain in the rotation while Kyle Freeland (elbow) is sidelined. Lambert is currently scheduled for a home start against the Giants in his next outing.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Picks up another start

    Lambert is scheduled to start Thursday's game in Miami.

    After making his first start of the season April 21 versus the Mariners, Lambert made his most recent appearance out of the bullpen, as he covered 2.2 innings in long relief on April 25 after starter Dakota Hudson was pulled from the contest midway through the fourth inning. After having off days last Friday and this past Monday, the Rockies were able to temporarily get by with a four-man rotation, but Lambert will return to starting role this week as the team returns to a five-man rotation.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Struggles versus Mariners

    Lambert (2-1) was tagged with the loss after he pitched three innings, allowing six runs on six hits while striking out five batters in Sunday's 10-2 defeat to the Mariners in Game 2 of their doubleheader.

    Lambert was able to toss a clean first inning before things got away from him in the top of the second, surrendering six runs in the frame with J.P. Crawford most notably ripping a three-run triple. The right-hander was making his first start of the season and he was unable to continue the success that he had coming out of the bullpen, watching his ERA balloon from 2.31 to 5.52 on the year. Lambert is tentatively set to pitch again next Sunday at home versus the Astros.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Moves into rotation

    The Rockies announced Friday that Lambert will enter the starting rotation while Kyle Freeland (elbow) is on the injured list, Patrick Lyons of JustBaseball.com reports.

    Lambert failed to make the Rockies' rotation out of spring training, but Freeland's injury will give the 27-year-old righty another opportunity. Lambert has appeared in six games this year, surrendering three earned runs across 11.2 innings while striking out 10 batters and walking six. He's in line to make his first start in the second game of Sunday's doubleheader versus Seattle.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Moving to bullpen

    The Rockies announced Sunday that Lambert will open the season as a long reliever, Patrick Saunders of The Denver Post reports.

    The 26-year-old was fighting for a rotation spot but posted a 5.40 ERA over 16.2 spring innings and lost out to Dakota Hudson and Ryan Feltner. Lambert worked as a swingman for Colorado last season with 11 starts in 25 appearances, and he should fill a similar role in 2024.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Limiting runs in spring

    Lambert allowed one hit and no walks while striking out two across three scoreless innings in Saturday's Cactus League game against the Cubs.

    Lambert hasn't allowed a run in three of his four spring outings and also hasn't issued a walk across his last two appearances. However, he's also lacked swing-and-miss stuff, as he's racked up only five strikeouts across nine frames. Lambert is competing for both a rotation and roster spot, and his spring performance should be beneficial to him.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Settles with Rockies at $1.25M

    The Rockies and Lambert avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $1.25 million contract Thursday, Patrick Lyons of TheDNVR.com reports.

    Lambert receives a nice little raise in what was his first year of arbitration eligibility. The right-hander's 2023 season ended with a 5.36 ERA and biceps tendinitis, but he should be healthy for the start of spring training.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Out with biceps tendinitis

    Lambert was placed on the 15-day injured list with right biceps tendinitis Saturday.

    Lambert technically has time to return before the end of the season, but the timing of the injury makes it quite likely that he's done for the year. If that's the case, he'll end his age-26 season having recorded a 5.36 ERA and 1.39 WHIP across 11 starts and 14 relief appearances. Karl Kauffmann was called up to take his place on the roster.

  • Rockies' Peter Lambert: Hit hard in loss

    Lambert (3-7) gave up six runs on eight hits and two walks while striking out two over five innings, taking the loss Sunday versus the Giants.

    The Rockies gave Lambert a 3-0 lead to work with in the second inning, but it was gone by the end of the third. The Giants teed off with three homers in this contest, the most Lambert's given up in an appearance this season. He's now at a 5.36 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 71:28 K:BB through 87.1 innings over 25 appearances (11 starts). The right-hander is projected for a rematch at home with the Giants in his next outing.
