Peterson signed a minor-league contract with the Pirates on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson spent the 2023 campaign at Triple-A Lehigh Valley in the Phillies organization, posting an .816 OPS with 19 home runs over 85 games. The 29-year-old hasn't seen any action in the majors since 2019 and is merely a depth addition.

Peterson re-signed with the Phillies on a minor-league contract Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The Phils acquired Peterson from the Brewers early on last season and now the two sides have agreed to continue the relationship. Peterson only has 49 plate appearances at the major-league level and none since 2019.

The Phillies acquired Peterson from the Brewers on Tuesday for cash considerations and assigned him to Triple-A Lehigh Valley.

EDGE Analysis

With Philadelphia having dealt away Adam Haseley prior to the start of the season and with Odubel Herrera (oblique) and Mickey Moniak (hand) currently residing on the injured list, the addition of Peterson helps restore some organizational outfield depth. Peterson appeared in 17 games at the big-league level with the Tigers in 2019, but since that time, he's played exclusively at Triple-A Nashville. Over 329 plate appearances with the Brewers' top affiliate in 2021, Peterson slashed .271/.347/.416 with nine home runs and 56 RBI.

Peterson (finger) has gone 7-for-21 with an RBI and a run in his six games for Triple-A Nashville since being reinstated from the 7-day injured list July 13.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson spent just over five weeks on the IL with a fractured finger on his left hand. The journeyman outfielder is slashing .280/.342/.420 with three home runs and 19 RBI across 111 plate appearances on the season for Nashville.

Peterson was placed on the 7-day minor-league injured list with a broken finger on his left hand Friday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson was recently hit by a pitch and will be sidelined after he appeared in 21 games for Triple-A Nashville to begin the year. During that time, he slashed .266/.344/.443 with three home runs, 18 RBI and 18 runs. A timetable for his return isn't yet known.

Peterson exited Saturday's game against the Royals with an apparent injury, Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson colliding with right fielder Tyrone Taylor while chasing a flyball. He was able to walk off under his own power, so he may have avoided a serious injury.

Peterson signed a minor-league contract with the Brewers on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old first baseman/corner outfielder attracted the attention of the Brewers through his performance in the Mexican Winter League, where he's slashed .316/.373/.602 with 11 home runs in 37 games with Monterrey. His contract with the Brewers doesn't include an invitation to big-league spring training, so Peterson will presumably report to Triple-A Nashville when the 2021 campaign begins.

Peterson was released by the Angels on Monday, David O'Brien of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

While playing for Triple-A Toledo in 2019, Peterson suffered an elbow injury that sidelined him after July. The 25-year-old appeared in 79 games at the Triple-A level last season, recording a .286/.317/.439 slash line with 11 home runs and 49 RBI.

Peterson was signed to a minor-league deal by the Angels on Friday, Taylor Blake Ward of Locked on Angels reports.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson's deal includes an invitation to spring training, and the newcomer is penciled in to make an appearance in the Angels' split-squad contest against Kansas City on Friday. Peterson is likely to serve as an organizational depth for the Halos after hitting .227 in 44 at-bats with the Tigers in 2019.

Peterson (elbow) is listed as an available bench option for the Tigers in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the Blue Jays, Rob Longley of the Toronto Sun reports.

EDGE Analysis

Peterson has yet to make his spring debut, but his inclusion on the lineup card is an indication that he's moved past the elbow injury that resulted in him being shut down for the remainder of the 2019 season in July. Detroit outrighted Peterson off the 40-man roster during the offseason, so he's slated to open the campaign at Triple-A Toledo.
