Pirates' Dillon Peters: Designated for assignment
Peters was designated for assignment by the Pirates on Thursday.
Peters hasn't played in a major-league game since Aug. 3 and has now returned from his rehab assignment for his left elbow. However, the Pirates placed him on waivers after his activation. The 30-year-old lefty has a 4.58 ERA and 1.32 WHIP on the season, so he's a candidate to be claimed by another team looking for another arm in their bullpen.

Pirates' Dillon Peters: Beginning rehab assignment
Peters (elbow) will begin a rehab assignment at Double-A Altoona on Friday, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
Peters resumed throwing in late August and has been cleared to return to game action in the minors. The southpaw has been sidelined since Aug. 4 due to his elbow injury, so it's possible that he'll require more than one rehab appearance prior to rejoining the Pirates' bullpen.

It's not yet clear whether Peters threw off a mound, but this is confirmation he's been cleared to resume a throwing program.

Pirates' Dillon Peters: Likely to start throwing soon
Pirates director of sports medicine Todd Tomczyk said Wednesday that Peters (back) should be ready to start a throwing program soon, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
Peters has already resumed plyometric work since landing on the 15-day injured list Aug. 4 with left elbow inflammation, and he looks on the cusp of moving on to the next phase of his recovery program. The Pirates view Peters as a multi-inning option out of the bullpen, so once he starts throwing again, he could need around two weeks to complete his progression before he's deemed ready to return from the IL.

The Pirates placed Peters on the 15-day injured list Thursday due to left elbow inflammation, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

Pirates' Dillon Peters: Returns from IL
The Pirates reinstated Peters (back) from the 15-day injured list Tuesday.
Reliever Eric Stout was optioned to Triple-A Indianapolis to clear room on the active roster for Peters, who had been on the injured list since June 7 with a back muscle spasm. Peters built up to 2.1 innings over his four rehab appearances between Indianapolis and Double-A Altoona, so he should be available as a potential bulk-relief option behind opener Chris Stratton while the Pirates treat Tuesday's game in Miami as a bullpen day.

Peters (3-2) allowed five runs in four hits and a walk while taking a loss against the Cubs on Monday. He recorded two outs.
Peters gave up two runs and loaded the bases before he was relieved in favor of Bryse Wilson.

Pirates' Dillon Peters: Gets starting nod Monday
Peters is listed as the Pirates' starting pitcher for Monday's game against the Cubs.
Peters is presumably serving as an opener or tandem starter in front of Bryse Wilson, who should step in for the lefty in the middle innings. Over his 10 appearances (three starts) this season, Peters hasn't recorded more than 10 outs, so the Pirates will likely pull him well before the Chicago lineup turns over a third time.

Pirates' Dillon Peters: Three shutout innings
Peters allowed two hits and struck out two across three scoreless innings Wednesday against the Dodgers.
Peters served as the opener and rebounded from the four-run drubbing he received in his last outing. He served as an opener for the third time this season, and he's turned in 8.1 scoreless innings in the role. Peters has a strong 1.83 ERA across 19.2 frames to begin the campaign, though his 15:9 K:BB provides a less optimistic outlook for his future results.

Pirates' Dillon Peters: Will work as opener Wednesday
Pirates manager Derek Shelton said Peters will serve as an opener in Wednesday's game against the Dodgers, Jake Crouse of MLB.com reports.
Pittsburgh is likely to treat the series finale with the Dodgers as a bullpen day, with Peters being the first pitcher used in his third outing of the season as an opener. He faltered during his most recent relief appearance Sunday against the Reds, serving up four runs while failing to record an out. However, he turned in his best outing of the season the last time he was deployed as an opener May 4, when he struck out four over 3.1 scoreless innings against Detroit.

Pirates' Dillon Peters: Strong as opener again
Peters allowed one hit and one walk while striking out four across 3.1 scoreless innings in the first game of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Tigers. He did not factor into the decision.
Peters served as the opener, with Bryse Wilson working behind him in a piggyback appearance. This was the second time that Peters has preceded Wilson in this role, the first coming in a two-inning stint on April 27. The appearance continued Peters' strong start to the season, as he has yet to allow an earned run across 16.2 frames while striking out 13 and walking six.

Peters will start the first half of Wednesday's doubleheader against the Tigers, though he'll likely be merely an opener, Alex Stumpf of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
Bryse Wilson was scheduled to start Tuesday before the game got postponed, so he's expected to follow Peters on Wednesday. Peters has yet to give up a run in 13.1 innings so far this season.

Pirates' Dillon Peters: Excels as opener
Peters allowed one walk and did not record a strikeout across two innings Wednesday against the Brewers. He did not factor into the decision.
Peters has begun the 2022 season in a bulk-relief role for Pittsburgh, regularly working at least two innings in his appearances. However, he drew the start Wednesday, with Bryse Wilson following him. Peters has yet to allow an earned run across 12.1 innings this season, though he has only an 8:5 K:BB. It's possible that the team looks to build him up to a traditional rotation role, but it appears more likely that his appearance to begin the game Wednesday was an effort to get Wilson on track.
