MATT PEACOCK NEWS

Traded to Royals Peacock was traded from the Diamondbacks to the Royals on Sunday in exchange for cash considerations.

Impact Peacock allowed two runs in 2.2 innings in his first two major-league appearances of the season before being designated for assignment by Arizona on Thursday. The right-hander will now land a spot on the Royals' 40-man roster, and he'll likely report to Triple-A Omaha after Domingo Tapia was designated for assignment Sunday.

Designated for assignment Peacock was designated for assignment by the Diamondbacks on Thursday.

Impact Peacock was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Tuesday, and he'll now lose his spot on the 40-man roster after infielder Matt Davidson's contract was selected Thursday. Peacock allowed two runs in 2.2 innings in his two relief appearances in the majors early in the year, and he'll likely remain in the organization if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Sent to Triple-A Peacock was optioned to Triple-A Reno after Game 1 of Tuesday's doubleheader against the Nationals.

Impact Peacock was promoted over the weekend and made two appearances during his short time with the team, including during Tuesday's matinee. He'll remainwith the Diamondbacks on the taxi squad but has lost his spot on the 40-man roster. Edwin Uceta was recalled in a corresponding move.

Called up from taxi squad The Diamondbacks recalled Peacock from their taxi squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Mets.

Impact Peacock was summoned from Triple-A Reno for the Diamondbacks' trip to New York in case he was needed as an extra relief arm. With Caleb Smith working three innings out of the bullpen in Friday's 10-3 loss and not available for Sunday's series finale with the Mets, Peacock will move up to the 28-man active roster as a replacement for the lefty, who was optioned to Reno. Expect Peacock's opportunities to mostly be limited to long-relief or low-leverage situations while he's with the big club.

Optioned to Triple-A Peacock was optioned to Triple-A Reno on Friday.

Impact Peacock owns an unimpressive 4.90 ERA in 86.1 innings as a swingman this season, with his strong 59.2 percent groundball rate not proving to be enough to offset a very low 13.0 percent strikeout rate. He'll make way on the roster for Humberto Castellanos, who was recalled to start Saturday against Seattle.

Struggles as opener Peacock got a no-decision in Thursday's 12-3 victory over San Diego, allowing two runs on three hits with two strikeouts in 1.1 innings.

Impact Peacock got off to a rough start, allowing two runs and three of the first four Padres to reach base before retiring the next three batters to conclude his outing. This was just a spot start and Peacock needs to display some consistency before taking on a larger role.

Spot start Thursday Peacock will start Thursday's game against the Padres, Zach Buchanan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Taylor Widener was scratched and placed on the injured list with an undisclosed issue prior to his start Thursday. Peacock will take the hill initially in Widener's place. Though Peacock has primarily pitched out of the bullpen this season, he did throw 4.2 innings as a bulk reliever on Aug 6. He may not be able to pitch deep enough for a chance to earn the win but should be able to toss multiple innings.

Takes loss in ninth inning Peacock (5-7) was tagged with the relief loss Tuesday against the Giants after giving up an unearned run on one hit and one walk across two-thirds of an inning.

Impact Peacock took the mound after the Diamondbacks scored two runs in the top of the ninth and had to take the game into extras, but he fell short from that goal. He found himself with runners in first and second with two outs, but a fielding error from Christian Walker allowed LaMonte Wade to score on an error-led single from Kris Bryant. The right-hander had to settle for an unfortunate loss, but it's not as if he's been pitching very well of late. He has given up runs in five of his last eight appearances, posting a 3.57 ERA and a 1.30 WHIP in that span.

Earns relief win Friday Peacock (5-6) allowed three hits and struck out four over 4.2 scoreless relief innings to earn the win over the Padres on Friday.

Impact For the second time in five days, Peacock was asked to provide bulk relief innings for starter-for-now Caleb Smith, who walked six and gave up five runs over 1.1 innings. He restored order for the Diamondbacks, who were able to comeback from a 5-0 deficit to win. Peacock, who has pitched as both a starter and reliever this season, could rejoin the rotation in place of Smith, who has lasted less than two innings in three of his last five starts while posting a 14.04 ERA in those outings.
