May 16 2025The Brewers optioned Peguero to Triple-A Nashville on Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: With Rob Zastryzny coming over from the Yankees to bolster the Brewers' bullpen, Peguero will end up as the odd man out without a roster spot. The 28-year-old has given up four earned runs in just 7.1 innings this season, but he could be called upon later in the year if Milwaukee needs to add a fresh arm.
May 11 2025The Brewers recalled Peguero from Triple-A Nashville on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Milwaukee sent starter Tobias Myers to Triple-A in a corresponding move. Peguero was a staple of the Milwaukee bullpen in 2024, but the 28-year-old righty posted a 5.68 ERA and 1.74 WHIP in five appearances to begin the season before being optioned to Nashville on April 11. The right-hander has performed better over the past month at Triple-A, giving up two earned runs on six hits and four walks over eight innings across seven appearances.
Apr 11 2025The Brewers optioned Peguero to Triple-A Nashville on Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: After turning in a career-best 2.98 ERA last season, Peguero has struggled to begin 2025, allowing four earned runs in just 6.1 innings. He'll now head to Triple-A in order to get back on track, and his roster spot will be given to Jose Quintana, who officially joined the big-league club for his season debut Friday.
Sep 12 2024Peguero was optioned to Triple-A Nashville on Thursday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero has pitched nearly the entire season at the big-league level and maintained a solid 2.98 ERA across 51.1 frames. However, his 4.7 BB/9 has led to an inflated 1.54 WHIP. He'll head to the minors, though he would be a candidate to return to the majors if the Brewers require depth out of the bullpen later in the month.
Sep 3 2024The Brewers recalled Peguero from Triple-A Nashville on Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero has collected a 3.00 ERA and 43:24 K:BB across 48 frames out of the Milwaukee bullpen this season. He'll likely operate as a middle reliever for the Brewers.
Aug 19 2024The Brewers optioned Peguero to Triple-A Nashville on Monday, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero had posted a 1.38 ERA and 13:6 K:BB over his last 13 innings covering 15 appearances but nonetheless finds himself back in the minors. The Brewers have not yet announced a corresponding move, but Trevor Megill (back) returning from the injured list appears highly probable.
Jun 26 2024Peguero picked up the save Tuesday against the Rangers, striking out one during a perfect ninth inning. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: With Trevor Megill having pitched the past two days, Peguero stepped into the closing role Tuesday and fired a perfect inning for his second save of the season. The effort was a rebound for Peguero, who yielded four hits and two runs (one earned) across his previous two innings. Peguero owns a 5-2 record with a 2.81 ERA across 32.0 innings this season.
May 30 2024Peguero earned the save in Thursday's 6-4 win over the Cubs, allowing one hit in a scoreless ninth inning. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: With Trevor Megill (elbow) unavailable after he was struck by a line drive Tuesday, Peguero got the call in the ninth inning Thursday. He worked around a Dansby Swanson one-out single to close out a two-run victory, earning his first save of the year. It could be a one-off for Peguero, as Megill is expected to avoid an IL stint and figures to reclaim the closing job until Devin Williams (back) is healthy. Still, the 27-year-old Peguero has been a solid late-inning option for the Brewers this season, pitching to a 2.92 ERA with a 1.58 WHIP and 22:12 K:BB over 24.2 innings.
Mar 3 2024Peguero (elbow) has struck out two while allowing one earned run on two hits and one walk over two innings through his first two Cactus League appearances. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero concluded the 2023 season on the Brewers' 15-day injured list with a right elbow effusion but doesn't seem to be facing any restrictions in spring training. The 26-year-old righty is expected to fill a middle-innings role out of the Milwaukee bullpen this season after logging a 3.38 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and 54:26 K:BB in 61.1 frames in 2023 while collecting four wins, one save and 21 holds.
Sep 20 2023Peguero was placed on the 15-day injured list Wednesday, retroactive to Sept. 17, with a right elbow effusion, Sophia Minnaert of Bally Sports Wisconsin reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: It's unclear when the injury first surfaced for Peguero, but he hasn't pitched since he delivered 1.1 scoreless frames Saturday against Washington. The right-hander will miss the rest of the regular season but will be eligible to return in the playoffs, which the Brewers are undoubtedly hoping for given his 3.38 ERA and 21 holds in 59 outings this year.
Aug 8 2023Peguero tossed a scoreless eighth inning in Monday's 12-1 victory over the Rockies. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero was preparing to enter the game with the Brewers ahead by only four runs, so don't let the fact that he worked in a blowout lead you to believe he is no longer part of Milwaukee's late-inning mix. Peguero gave up three earned runs twice in late July, but he seems to have righted the ship, allowing just one runner to reach base through three outings in August. He remains the top right-handed option in front of setup man Joel Payamps and closer Devin Williams.
Jun 26 2023Peguero picked up his first career save Sunday against the Guardians after striking out two and not allowing a hit in the 10th inning. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero was awarded a save opportunity in the 10th after Devin Williams pitched a perfect ninth to send the game to extra innings. The 26-year-old started off the frame with back-to-back strikeouts of Jose Ramirez and Josh Naylor and shut the door on the game by getting Myles Straw to foul out. The 26-year-old has been a viable reliver in his first season with the Brewers and now stands at a 2.89 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 25:11 K:BB to go with five holds and the one save over 28 innings. He's unlikely to see many more save chances moving forward unless Williams is unavailable to pitch.
Jun 3 2023Peguero tossed a scoreless 10th inning and picked up the first win of his career in Friday's victory over the Reds. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero hit a batter in his lone inning, but he also kept the Reds off the scoreboard in the bottom of the 10th frame, and he walked away with the win when the Brewers scored two runs to Cincinnati's one in the 11th. Since being recalled by the Brewers in late April, Peguero has allowed two and four earned runs in separate outings, but he has also made 12 scoreless appearances and owns a 2.89 ERA and 1.18 WHIP. As such, his spot in Milwaukee's bullpen seems secure for the time being.
Nov 22 2022Peguero was traded from the Angels to the Brewers on Tuesday along with Janson Junk and Adam Seminaris in exchange for Hunter Renfroe. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero has appeared in 16 games for the Angels over the past two seasons but has struggled in his first taste of the majors with 13 earned runs allowed across 17.1 innings. The 25-year-old pitched well at Triple-A last year with a 2.84 ERA and will now attempt to find his footing in a new organization.
Jul 30 2022Peguero was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Saturday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero spent just over a month in the Angels' bullpen and posted a 5.63 ERA and 1.50 WHIP in 16 innings over 11 appearances. However, he'll lose his spot on the active roster after he gave up three unearned runs in one-third of an inning Friday against Texas.
Jun 22 2022Peguero was recalled from Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday, Sam Blum of The Athletic reports. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The 25-year-old made two appearances for the Angels in early May and will now rejoin the major-league club. Peguero surrendered three runs over 1.1 innings between those two outings, but he's pitched better at Triple-A with a 3.55 ERA, 1.20 WHIP and 33:5 K:BB across 25.1 innings.
May 12 2022The Angels optioned Peguero to Triple-A Salt Lake following Wednesday's 4-2 loss to the Rays. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Los Angeles is off Thursday and likely won't announce a corresponding addition to the 26-man active roster until Friday, when Chase Silseth could be summoned from Double-A Rocket City to make a spot start in the Angels' series opener in Oakland, according to Sam Blum of The Athletic. Peguero was recalled from Triple-A on May 3 and made two appearances over his week-and-a-half-long stint with the big club, working 1.1 innings and giving up three earned runs.
May 1 2022Peguero was optioned to Triple-A Salt Lake on Sunday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero was called up by the Angels on Saturday but didn't make any appearances during his time on the major-league roster. The right-hander has been effective in Salt Lake this year, posting a 1.74 ERA and 0.69 WHIP in 10.1 innings over six relief appearances.
Apr 30 2022Peguero was recalled by the Angels on Saturday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero began the season at Triple-A Salt Lake and posted a 1.74 ERA and 0.69 WHIP in 10.1 innings over six relief appearances. He gave up seven runs in 2.1 innings over three outings with the Angels last year, and he's unlikely to pitch in high-leverage situations during his current stint in the majors.
Sep 17 2021Peguero was sent to Triple-A Salt Lake and was removed from the 40-man roster Friday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero had his contract selected as a replacement for a player who was placed on the COVID-19 injured list in late August. As a result, he can be removed from the 40-man roster without being subjected to waivers. During his first stint in the majors, Peguero threw only 2.1 innings but surrendered seven earned runs out of the Angels' bullpen.
Aug 27 2021Peguero (0-1) took the loss against Baltimore on Thursday, pitching two-thirds of an inning and allowing five runs on two hits and three walks. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: The right-hander received his first call-up to the majors Wednesday and made his debut Thursday. The outing did not go well, as Peguero threw only 16 of 31 pitches for strikes and issued three free passes. All five batters he allowed to reach base eventually came around to score, including three who crossed the plate after his departure. Peguero has been solid in the minors this season but may not stick around with the big club for long, especially if he's unable to consistently throw strikes.
Aug 25 2021The Angels selected Peguero's contract from Triple-A Salt Lake on Wednesday. ROTOWIRE RECOMMENDS: Peguero has appeared in only one game for Salt Lake, pitching two scoreless innings with two strikeouts and a walk. He's made 26 total appearances across three minor-league levels this season and has posted a 2.79 ERA and 67:18 K:BB in 51.2 innings. Peguero figures to be used in low-leverage relief situations for however long he remains with the Angels.
